Tumbling Dice 1/2400th British Pre-Dreadnoughts: Battleships and Armoured Cruisers

ABB1a Centurion Class BB (rebuilt)

ABB5 Canopus Class BB

ABB14 Cressy Class AC

ABB15 Drake Class AC

I promised to post some photos of the Tumbling Dice 1/2400th scale British Pre-Dreadnought models a while back but just didn't have time to get it sorted. So, to make up for my wayward time keeping, here are some pictures of a couple of the battleships and a couple of the armoured cruisers, warts and all. The armoured cruisers and very imposing models, especially the Drake Class which is half the length of HMS Centurion again. I like the exaggerated detail on these models, although others might find it a big over the top, as I think they will paint up very nicely indeed with a simple wash and dry brush technique. I'll add some photos of the protected cruisers, destroyers and gunboats tomorrow.

  1. They're striking models. I look forward to seeing them painted up.

  2. They are very nice. I prefer them to 1/3000 scale which is a bit too small for press dreadnoughts
