The age between the two vessels makes no difference. The crest will be the same for ships bearing the same name. (Google ships heraldry).
Doug, have a look at the Google link I posted earlier.

They are all Tigers, dependant on the artist of the time. In 100 years a new HMS Tiger will show a Tiger on its crest!!
WELL Doug i dont think i'll get to see it lol
chrisb
Nor I.
That was my point Doug.

Here are my efforts. They vary from approx 11mm to about 15mm. I did a few so that I could practice and you can pick the size you want if you like them. I have given them a coat of UV resin since I know they may be going to sea and that should protect them. PM me your address and I will send them over in the canoe.

WELL looks like John has sorted the ships bridge crest badge im very pleased to say but now ive still to sort out that motor problem as the rear ones go great so they ok but ive been on this since about 10 am this morn an ive uesd up to 5 different sorts of ESC 'S as yes i fitted them all in today an ran them some even 40 amps ones but there is such a massive eletric currant goin through them they only run for about 20 seconds an they get very hot an the cutout that fitted in the eletronics cuts in an stops the ESC SO NO GOOD an tomorrow im on my last attempt as im goin to run all 4 motors through the big ESC an start gently an see how they go if at all an it will be protected by a 30 amp fuse so here's hopein finger crossed

chrisb
Good luck dude, hope the tests work out!!
JUST had a flash of inspireration an thats instead of tryin to run all 4 motors through one ESC i think i'll take the big ESC out of its postion AN fit that so that it runs them big grupner 600 motors what have a high currant as i know that the big ESC WILL rum them as treid it today an no probs but as it runs the back motors great i dint want to touch somthing thats goin good but i will swop it to the back motors an then fit in one of them smaller ESC to run the smaller johnsons motors so thats another idea i'll find out tomorrow
