Calling all Admiral Gorshkov-class (Адмирал Горшков) frigate (Project 22350) fans

Hi,

Gwylan Models has just released Project 22350 Admiral Gorshkov Frigate at 1/700 scale, and I have a few issues regarding the painting scheme of this ship I want to share with you, based on the following link available at YouTube regarding this ships:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2TyT54m23Q


Now, check the attached photos, extracted from the previous footage about the real ship.

1- According with this footage, the FWD deck (in front of the bridge windows) is painted with the same light grey colour used to paint the hull and vertical structures. (Pr22350 0m25s.jpg and Pr22350 0m30s.jpg)

2- The deck at the bridge wings is painted with the standard �Russian Red Brick colour�. (Pr22350 1m11s.jpg)

3- MTPU pedestal machine gun 14.5 mm at the bridge wing deck (Pr22350 1m13s.jpg)

4- The helipad (Pr22350 Decks Colour.jpg) seems to be painted with the same light grey colour used to paint the hull and vertical structures

5- Name of the ship in Cyrillic on both sides of the hull (stern and bellow the safety nets of the helipad)

6- Check the file Pr22350 Decks Colour.jpg with the decks colour scheme.

7- The white helipad markings seems quite simple.

Do you agree with my interpretation regarding the colour scheme applied on Project 22350 Admiral Gorshkov Frigate of the Russian Navy?


BTW, a review in german is already available at following link: (Thank you Lars!!!)

As soon as I receive my model, I'll produce my review about this kit and I'll share it at this Forum.




Thanks.

Unfortunately I have not found any high resolution photos showing her decks clearly, but I think that you are right and most of the decks, which are regularly used by the crew, are red and not grey.

Hi,

The best "aerial" photo of this ship I found so far at the Internet, yet still to insufficient to identify the colour of all decks:

Source: http://fleetphoto.ru/photo/181470/


My opinion so far regarding the deck colours:

All decks and horizontal surfaces (top of the bridge and Hangar) are painted with the Russian Grey Colour (the same colour of the hull, structures and main radar mast) with some exceptions mentioned bellow;
Decks on the bridge wings - Russian Red Brick colour;
Deck amidships where the Funnel, RHIB, Ship Boat and Cranes are located - Russian Grey Colour
Deck FWD the Palma/Palash CIWS where the PU KT-216 and PU KT-308 decoy launchers are installed - Russian Grey Colour


Still no idea about the colour of the helipad....



Thanks.
