All aboard the Armoured Cruisers!

Project Jutland took another leap forward this week with the completion of the British Armoured Cruiser Squadrons consisting of 8 ships and another 4 M Class Destroyers  (you can never have enough M Class).

I had real problems putting together these beasts, the secondary turrets especially were a real pain. I have lost a couple of masts already too so I don't hold out much hope for the rest of them.

Thanks again for your continued interest.

Holy turrets! That's a mean looking cruiser. Great work. I really can't wait to see the whole collection when it's completed.

Cheers people, the last of the German ships are being painted as we speak so the next post will be the complete High Seas Fleet

Great work! The more I read about them, the more I find myself intrigued by the armored cruiser. They really do strike me as the "battle cruiser" of the pre-Dreadnought era.
