  1. Hello Daniel! Yes, I agree with you. Judging by the wooden deck flooring, there were no living quarters under the forecastle. This means that the ordinary crew was located only in the room below the deck of the poop deck.
  2. Thank you Roger! If I understand you correctly, the crew of the ship was located approximately like this.
  3. Sasha, your path is right! 👍 Impregnation with varnish or cyacrine glue will solve your remaining problems.
  4. This model is built in the style of factory built models from the 19th and 20th centuries. Therefore, some parts will not be painted.
  5. Sasha, I agree with Eberhard, brass rings are completely unnecessary here. You won't be able to make them the right size, it's a very small detail. Try making a loop of thread without a knot. Using cyacrine glue only, simply bend the thread into a loop and secure with glue. After this, cut off the extra piece of thread. This is how the bottom loop in the photo is made.
  6. Eberhard, this is not entirely true. The yards on the Varyag were not designed for sails. So I did everything as shown in the photo of the cruiser.
  7. Hello Sasha! I cannot explain this in words because the translator greatly distorts the terminology. I can only show in the photo how I made these parts on the Varyag.
  8. Hello Brett! If you need these drawings, write to me in a personal message. But I have them in the form of large fragments that will have to be joined.
  9. Phil! I use 30, 60, 80 and 100 watt soldering irons. I have a soldering station, but I rarely use it because I am not satisfied with the shape and quality of the heating element.
  10. The steering wheel at the stern was a spare one, and the main one was in the wheelhouse, in the bow of the ship. This is where the steering rope goes along the side.
