The Trumpeter 1/200 Former Soviet "Courageous" destroyer aka Project 7/Gnevny class seems to be available once again, provided by an outfit called Modelist from the Russian Federation. Nice box art, it is given the name Destroyer "RAZUMNY". Seems to be most easily available on fleabay...

What is the appropriate color for painting the Tashkent? She was called "the blue cruiser", and color suggestions run from a lurid cobalt blue to Regia Marina light blue. I would appreciate any information. TIA, Richard

Pavel: Thanks, a good looking model of a good looking ship!
Vladimir: Well, I wondered if the overall dimensions seem to be correct, since appearently they did no great job there with their Valerian Kuibyshev (as per your feature build in the gallery).
Thanks and cheers, Peter

Thanks,
Peter I have the kit but haven't built it. Seems to be the usual Combrig quality. Do you have any specific questions? Vladimir

Hi, I built the Samek Tashkent in 1/700 scale. I did a bit of scratch building on her and added some details like after market 37 mm Italian AA guns and brass barrels. I painted her in a custom mix of Humbrol colours, as close as I could match the Profile Morskie colour profile of her in the " blue". The kit got a first at the Chicago 2001 NATS. Here is a link to a photo on my website. http://www.admiraltymodelworks.com/inde ... ,category/Regards, Pavel

Back to this one! I picked up the Morskie for Tashkent a few weeks back and have had a little time to look at it, interesting ship and really very smart looking. Some details will be 'challenging' to reproduce in 1:700 but I like a challenge. I already have an idea of how to use her and lets just say those Eduard civilian figures will come in handy.
One thing that does give me a slight problem is what colour exactly is that she is painted? Is it Italian colours? Not being able to read the polish text and having seen no mention of it elsewhere it has me stumped.

Nice stuff for Mike and others who want to duplicate him in larger scale (and yes, I have a way larger version available):

Mike,
Here is the MK page on the Tashkent...
http://mkmagazin.almanacwhf.ru/ships/tashkent.htm
Nice G-5s. Skytrex does them in 1/600 so I never tried to "muscle in" on that one. I prefer to do all else.
My fav is the D-3 MTB.

Here is a great site with lots of detailed drawings of Soviet ships and boats. If you run the URL through Babelfish, you can get a pretty good translation, too.
http://mkmagazin.almanacwhf.ru/ships/
I have a bunch of rather odd Soviet boats in 1/600 in my line:
RU1 Type 1125 AMGB (Armored gunboat w/T-34 turret)
RU2 Type D3 MTB (Wooden hulled MTB)
RU3 M04 Subchaser (Patrol boat w/2-45mm guns)
RU4 Type 1125 "Katyuska" Armored gunboat (w/rocket rails)
RU6 TK Class MGB (MGB version of D3 MTB w/ 37mm aft.)
RU7 BMO Class Subchaser (Armored patrol craft with 37mm)
RU8 DB Class Landing craft ( Used in Black Sea 1943-45. Includes 37mm for AA escort version)
RU9 Russad Class Tank Landing Craft 1943(WW1 designed craft used in Black Sea 1942- 1943. Includes M3 Stuart light tank)
RU10 SM-3 Steel Hull MTB (Prototype boat used for long range attacks in Black Sea 1941-44. )
RU11 Komsomlets MTB Late war MTB used in the Baltic
RU12 MBKA Type 161 Armored Gunboat With 2-T-34 turrets
RU13 Stalnoi SM-1&2 MTB 1942
RU14 Tupolov "Aero-Glisser" Armed Airboat (3)
RU15 M class Coastal Submarine
Hope to someday finish the SM-4 MTB and do some Bolshevik Dvina River gunboats.

Okay, I just finished a first part (hull projections, cross sections, fitting of Uragan in 42, fitting of a Uragan-class ship after modernization) of the 1/72 plans for Uragan-class, based on the Morskaya Kollekciya 1/200 plans. If someone is interested, contact me. Remaining plans will follow in a few days.

How much do you want for them?
Also, I found some more kits, Samek makes a Pr. 7 destroyer Razumni, and leader Tashkent.
