Good work!

Fantastic work

Hello Luciano,

congratulations with your result so far! You're modelling skills are excellent!
Yet I'm sorry to say there are a few mistakes in the model (well, if you care about accuracy...) The mast you made appears to be the wrong one. This mast can only be found on the "old" first batch Sovremennies. The Nastoychiviy belongs to the second batch (which also includes a piece of superstructure between the forward part of superstructure and the funnel), hence she has a different aft mast.

Here you can see that the horizontal beams are not bent/ do not have an angle in the middle, but are just straight from the mast to their tip.

The middle superstructure part is also something strange, it is different from this one as the model you are building is the Export version of Sovremenny that was exported to China. Therefore it is slightly different from the Russian versions.
Those are only minor remarks of course. You're techniques look very amazing to me and her painting scheme is very nice!

Dang, that's one big boat. Nice work, Lucky!

Luciano,
are there any updates on your amazing project?
I'm dieing to see it.
What a wonderful job!!!!!

Great work Luciano!

Especially with the PE, looks spotless! I am envious.

However I also have a small point to make, this time about the Fregat (TOP PLATE) radar antenna. When I looked in the instructions for my Trumpeter 1/350 956E-kit, as well as the box pictures of the same model (not the artist picture), I see that Trumpeter have got it somewhat wrong. Both the antenna arrays should be tilted/slanted.
This is possibly the case in your set as well.

Hi friends

Kotte thanks for the photos
Correct
Also the WEM PEs 1/200 have some problem!
They are smaller and don't allow different positions
Thanks for the photos

Very soon I will make you see other photos of the WIP
Best Regard all
