Jim,
That was/is excellent. Only just found it this morning and have read all the above - great work. The whole thing is pretty amazing and the sea is magnificent as well!

Jim coming up from the depths of the site and WOW I see before me a stunning Rurik. Makes me lament over not perusing to completion my own 1:100 effort but life is full of IFs and might have beens but your Rurik is truly inspiring. One day I might just restart Rurik :heh:

This is really incredible Jim! Congratulations.
At first, I saw your piuctures before reading the posts. I thought it was the new 1/350 kit from Combrig, which I just bought through WEM. Now I notice it is...1/700!! really amazing! I doubt I will ever be able to attaint that level of detailing in 1/350 !!!

Anyway, I'll start very soon now on my model. Winter is still long!!! :wave_1:

Happy New Year!

Mark

P.S.: Now busy on Combrig 1/350 "le Hoche" or the "Grand Hotel"
