		HMS Renown was laid down in 1915 and launched 1916.
		I decided my model of HMS RENOWN would portray the ship as she would have appeared in the middle part of 1942 while sporting the wonderful camouflage scheme that is shown in the colour rendition of the scheme in port and starboard elevations in the instructions.
		I am tempted to someday build her again in either immediate pre-war or a late-war configuration in a more plain colour scheme, as I feel that much of the elegant lines and detail of the original ship and of this model kit are lost and disguised by, and within, the multicoloured paintwork.
