Soviet destroyer "Razumnyi"

Hello!

Not so long ago I had only read this forum, but now i think it's time to share my work.
My current build is soviet destroyer "Razumnyi" ("Reasonable") which was released last year by "Dom Bumagi" (house of paper)
publishing house (Ukraine). Destroyer served in North seas during the WW2, she participated in the meeting and escort of Allied convoys
to soviet union. I start build ship few month ago, it is done a lot, but a lot remains to be done. Also, because english is not my native language
feel free to correct me if i wrote or articulate something wrong, i'm still not strong in english naval terms.

Here we go! The magazine's cover (i especially like two-color camo):


The hull.
When i started to build the hull, i thought it would be easy. And it was in the beginning.
I needed to cut few millimeters from the top of each former, but basically the hull fit nice.


A little test with draft details.


Gluing the deck.


But when i started plating the bottom the things went bad. Somewhere from the middle of the hull plates lay askew,
so i decided to apply a putty and paint the bottom of a hull.


Building continues...
