1/500 HMS London (Scratchbuilt)
Using a photo of a model and a line drawing, I have tried to build HMS London as she might have appeared in 1941. The hull,bridge,and funnels are of basswood and cedar. The 8" main battery is from 1 1/3 UPC Exeters as is the fire control. The Walrus is UPC but it sits on a Revell catapult. I used Revell masts and cranes but I drilled them out to look a little better. The anchor chain is from Macy's.
