Richard Motyaka's stunning Sovermenniy

[Dave Wooley]

I was asked by North Sea if I would post up a number of pictures of Richard Motyaka's Sovremenniy and Udaloy both at 1:72nd scale .Even now when I revisit these pictures it's hard to tell the difference between the model and the real vessel but don't take my word for it , judge for yourself. Enjoy the pictures they are indeed insparational .
All of these are of Richard's Sovremenniy

There is no such thing as an accurate model only degrees of interpretation

Hi Dave, those are amazing pictures. I will be using them as a guide to what a 1/72 model can look like!

Thank you very much for taking the time to post them.

On most of the pictures I thought I was looking at the real ship
If some weathering would had been applied it really isn't possible to see if it is the real one or the model.....

Hi Bill , Richard has been trying to contact me , I believe he's now completed his Udaloy 2 which even in its basic form was as you so aptly described for his Sovremenniy build , �incredible�
Here are several pictures of his Udaloy 2 in its basic form !!!! I just give up .
