'Rod', this R-A/C is looking Really Good!!! :thumbs_up_1:

Just the Masking itself is First Rate......MayBe, da Russians might want to talk to ya about repainting Their ship...... :lol_pound:

But Seriously, Well done on those decks ..... the FD and the island are Expertly done, I just hope that when I get to my R-fleet, in 1/700 scale, it will look as good as yours!!

Yes, very much so. Looking forward to future updates. A really interesting ship. I have the kit myself but don't trust myself to build it yet.

The MiG-29Ks she embarked on her Syrian Deployment a few years ago looked really well in their overall dark grey colour scheme. And then there is the classic camouflage on the Su-33s:

You are making very good progress on her.

Rod, some good progress here! Question: did you actually glue the arresting cables (i cant figure out from the pic if it's wire or some engraving) and if so, what rigging wires (and diameter) have you used?
Cheers,
SG

Hi SG,
I haven't glued yet the cable wire, probably I'll use this wire:
