    I will carry on looking on the web for other sources though.

    WOW im shocked Garry closed down oh dear as i have met a new freind who is building HMS TIGER like mine but in 1/96 scale but not as a heicopter carrier as he wants it as it was as a gun crusier an he wants a 1/96 plan so when i see him i will tell him that jecobin has closed down so like you he will have to source his plans elsewhere but its a pity or a crying shame they have closed as they did very accruate plans oh dear thats another let down on the model boat hobby

      It is indeed sad Chris, thus far I have not come up with anything that speaks to me.
      I will continue looking.

      Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

              Many thanks for that information Chris, I have had a quick look, and it seems Sirmar are not trading anymore, however the other two have some great stuff, which I will be going through.

                  Hi Chris, That is very kind of you to offer.
                  TBH I have no idea which model may be of interest at this time, I was more wanting to see what was available. So probably best for me to do a bit more research first.
                  I'll have another go at trying to find them on the web.
                  Thank you so much for your help thus far.
