LCM 120

A loving fairwell

HDML (Curates Egg)

DragonBadger Model Curates egg. Harbour Defence Motor Launch I sent for this kit out of curiosity. As I had built a 1/25 motorized model of this type and really enjoyed the building and sailing days out, I thought it would be nice to make a 1/144 scale model of it. So, what do you get?

Stung ba a Mosqito

While escorting a convoy the "Kriegsfischkutter" was stung by a Mosquito with the result that the ships motor was damaged resulting in it drifting aground. As the watch keepers look for some promised help and for any more of those "pesky insects" the engine room fitters attempt t...
