Hello!

Have some update in build process.

Superstructure:


Not sure how to name this thing in the right way, but i think it's a "front chock", please correct me if it's not:


Chains for anchors, handmade, done them right from the second attempt, glad about it.


And decide to make some additions for boat davids - blocks:


More additions, paravanes, got them from sistership "Gremyashiy", originally not present in the model:


Some railings:


A small portion of details, installed on their places:



Building continues...

She's coming along well Alexy. Your attention to detail is making this a really excellent model. I really like the custom pieces, and you are painting them. I tend to avoid paint, preferring to use art markers because it's easier, but the paint gives a more realistic finish on subjects like this. Seeing your pictures inspires me to be less lazy and use different techniques/finishes where appropriate to give the best result.

Keep up the good work.

Hello!

This is the final update of this building process. Rigging was completed:


Flagpole was installed, but i was unable set it's support beams straight, because of depth charge track dimensions. Looks not nice,
but i can do nothing with this, so i left it as is.


Made a life buoys and a flag (i lent it from another ship, because there was no flags in "Razumnyi" set).



And finally the last armament was set on place and some lights.



That's all! Building completed!
Thanks for your attention.

A beautiful build Alexy. Someday I hope to have such a fine ship in my collection. You can be proud of that one.

Congratulations on finishing her.
