I wonder if 3-D printing could reproduce those quality models again?
Of course, I couldn't work nowadays at gluing and painting the fine pieces.
Good luck with the photography.

That battered old ship brings back some memories.
One of my old favourites was the crusier Ajax, which was a sister ship to the ill fated Sydney and Perth. I have just last month completed reading the book:
Cruiser, which is a very though history of the HMAS Perth and crew.
I recently brought the airfix model of the Ajax again, but have not yet put it together.
