Vanguard and Rodney undercoated

1) Strange choice to do together. Vanguard commissioned 1946? and Rodney de-commissioned in the same year.

2) I corrected your spelling in the quote - then got vanguard wrong twice

It was an Ebay job lot, was sold vangaurd, Vain gland, vlad gunss,  Vanguard,  as Hood, but being triple gunned in three turrets, it blatantly wasn't, but thought I ought to paint her anyway

I thought Vanguard had 8x15" in four turrets?  So it was Rodney,  9x16" in three turrets, which was labelled Hood?

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

You be right - the 15" turrets from Courageous and Glorious. They were considerably tweaked and the ammunition was improved to produce a battleship in in the minimum time. Course it took 6 years. Nelson and Rodney are the only triple turreted capital ships, KGV were supposed to 4 quads, and Lions would have had 3x16" turrets, but were never built.

Must be a Lion class then, as it's triple fore and aft turrets.
Great, even more useless!!! 

[FierceKitty]

Nearly finished prepping the Bondi (there are quite a lot of them).

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

Put up a pic and I'll tell you !

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Of the Bondi or HMS Lion? 

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

Blondie I can identify, also HMS Lion, but onl the ship is needed.

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Of course, she's at the worst stage of painting to take a photo! 

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

That one looks like Vanguard to me - 4 x twin turrets and the only transom stern on a British battleship...

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Except it's 3 triples, here's a better shot after a quick highlight.
Structure is very similar to KGV class, but gun configuration is different, and only one rear turret.

[Ithoriel]

BB63 Missouri maybe?

The next stage is glueing mustard seeds onto card shields to litter the bases of the berserkir.
