The first finished project that I have the pleasure of teaching(showing) them.
Where I must improve? Do not have piety
Thank you very much

A greeting from Palma de Mallorca.

Only thing I can think of to improve would be to flatten the paint (so it's not so glossy) and to fill the gap between the bottom edge of windows and the frames.

Excellent work

I agree with Timmy, nothing else to improve

I agree with them, the ship looks beautiful... the gloss coat on the top should go, but on the hull it doesn't look so bad, gives a nice reflection effect off the base's water.

Well, I've got lots of Kirov and Co- but you always seem to dig up ones I don't have! Are these coming from Airbase.ru, or do you have your own intelligence network.

News got to me that Moskva is staying in Lisbon for the next weekend!!!!! Drooling heavily here!!!!!!!!! Where is me camera?!!

Neptune · Post by **Neptune** » Mon Jan 21, 2008 3:56 pm

OK here we go.

Take some nice pictures Felipe!!! Certainly of the stern and aft part, I found a mistake in the Trumpeter model there. The Osa guidance radars (forgot their name) are not correctly positioned. So I'd sure be happy with some better pictures of that area.
I'm building Marshal Ustinov and I can already tell you how stupid I think that is... Ustinov seems to be the only one with her liferafts in a totally different position compared to the others... Luckily corrected that error in the instructions before I finished her. If a company brings four different kits for four ships of the same class, they should at least take care of such differences!

The entrances actually look like storage lockers/ammunition lockers for the decoy system.

Thanks for the tips Neptune!!!! I will take a load of photos for sure and I will put a few here. I have one Slava as well to build from Trumpeter. Seing the real thing might be VERY useful indeed for the model.
