I have acquired the new Queen Elizabeth class battleship from Trumpeter. I'm very pleased with the kit, it is very clean and up to their usual standard. I did however notice that it has no provision what so ever to build a waterline model, full hull....no waterline plate in the box.
I will have a good look at the kit and write more soon, I may also comment on the differences between the Academy Warspite kit and this one, as I have it as well ......Phil

I have continued to study this kit, the more I look, the more I like.....it is quite a versatile kit, it wouldn't be hard to modify to make the other members of this class, more soon........Phil

I've decided to change tack a bit here, I have the Academy Warspite in my possession (donated), so I will do a running commentary/construction log of it first, and with an eye on the future, any issues I come across with the Academy kit should be easy fixes on the Trumpeter kit, tho I expect the Trumpeter kit to be vastly superior.
I also want to see how well the Academy kit goes compared to the Trumpeter one, as some of you know already I'm not a fan of Academy, so this kit could be the make or break of them for me........Phil
