I find designs tend to get out of hand unless they are quite abstract so end up using transfers a lot.

I am sure the same could have happened to other shallow draft boats. I can’t believe a vessel as large as the Landing Craft Guns could not have suffered a similar fate if a torpedo stayed…[Read more]
