HMS HOOD & E CLASS DESTROYER 1/700


My first steps in naval modelling: HMS HOOD & an E Class destroyer cruising in the Atlantic on the look out for The Bismarck and Prinz Eugen.
I tried a birdseye perspective to suggest a photograph made by a overflying aeroplane (perhaps a long range German reconnaissance seeplane ?) . Both ships are made straight from the box from the Japanese brand TAMYIA.
Chimney smoke is suggested by cotton balls. I painted by hand the sea & waves effect.
