Hi Genua Superb piece of work ,
What is the hull made of and what type of construction ? Is it to be R/C and working? What materials have you used in the construction of the superstructure ? any more pictures please?

Hi Dave, thank you :big_grin:
The hull is made of plywood, planked with balsa. At least with a skin of epoxy. It´s for shure R/C, the first testrun was about half a year ago. But these are for now the only pictures i made.
Oh wait, the superstructure is made of 1 mm styrene.

Absolutely superb work! I'd never have imagined this was built of wood (the appearance of the superstructure + other solid parts is very realistic and convincing)

One of my favourite ships =)

Why 1/75?

Superb build!. Needs some weathering though. I don´t think those decks have ever been so clean, even on comissioning, but then, I guess he will weather them some, later on the building process.

Cheers.
Pachi.

Thanks :wave_1:
Of course, the decks will be weathered, when the rest is all done.
Timmy, i build it in 1/75, because i really like big models. And i`m getting this 2,15 meter ship without problems in my car :eyebrows:

Hello Freelance, I have a frame plan of a Krivak hull.


Nice Sovremennie, big indeed! Hope it's better than the real versions!
