HMS Glowworm GPM

Hi,
It is time to present my next model for this forum. British destroyer HMS Glowworm. I finished few weeks ago. I am not sure but maybe this is GreMir model printed by GPM. Here are some pictures from construction. I will upload pictures of completed model very soon. Maybe I will start full construction report my new ship on this forum but I am not good in English.

I have this model (the Gremir version). It is beyond my skill level now, but am looking forward to giving it a try some day.

I hope you will provide a full construction report, since I am eager to learn from you. Even if I never try to build this historic ship myself, I love to look at the photos of your superb models.

Hi,
No, this is Grzegorz Nowak's model published electronically by GreMir and in printed format by GPM.

Thumbs up Beautiful JOB

Very neat construction. Please do a build report. I have the GREMIR kit, and would love to try it. A build report or build notes would be much appreciated.

Nice! The railings are photo etched or maybe paper laser cut?

gollygee - I have no more pics. Don't worry Glowworm is easy ship. If you'll have some problem I can help you.

Toff - The railing is laser cut.

Thanks for the offer of help, Michal. I will have questions once I start this one. I am working on building up my hand skills with the Digital Navy Caravan (Admirable-class minesweeper) for now, but the Glowworm is waiting in the wings.
