inkpen Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Don't do ships, but got a Belfast kit from the charity shop for a 'shake and bake' build.I thought that for a kit of the early 1970s it appeared quite good - but I guess a lot of the detail was 'overscale'.From internet searches, it seems the kit is based upon a late 1930s fit, what with all the life rafts and the Walrus spotter aircraft.Were the stern lifeboat fittings a continuing feature of the ship? I've looked at many images and sometimes they appear and sometimes they don't. I guess they would continue as a feature until the first refit at least which from the Belfast website was around 1942.If I left these off of my model, would this be wrong? Otherwise it's out of the box! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailorman Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Ships change a lot over the years Try to find pictures of the ship for the year you have chosen to model her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
