I've updated my blog with some photos of a destroyer I scratchbuilt for use with 15mm miniatures.

Not bad.

A very nice model. It captures the essence of a destroyer of the time without being too specific as to class or nationality; this makes it useable with a variety of different scenarios.

Nice ship. But the first thing that popped in my head was the Destroyer from the Godzilla movies. Hopeing to see him in 15mm. Maybe next time?

Sorry, no Godzilla. If I staged a game like that, I'd probably be too tempted to smash the ship to smithereens!

Nice, practical wargaming model that will make for a great game, I don't doubt. Let the scale modelers have their fun…it is wargame time, and your destroyer has arrived.

I noted your nod to the philosophy espoused by the Major General.
