grsjax Posted November 26, 2021 #1 Posted November 26, 2021 This 1/48 model of a British ceremonial barge used to be on the CAF website but I can not find it now. Has it been discontinued? thibaultron and mtaylor 2 My advice and comments are always worth what you paid for them.

druxey Posted November 27, 2021 #4 Posted November 27, 2021 (edited) It's a not very good knock-off of the Greenwich Hospital barge of 1832. And not exactly 'HMS' either!

grsjax Posted November 27, 2021 Author #6 Posted November 27, 2021 The question is, does CAF still sell the kit. Another question is it a legitimate kit that can be here on MSW? thibaultron and mtaylor 2 My advice and comments are always worth what you paid for them.
