    I wrote about it on the first page of the topic. Your reasoning is completely correct for the NAVIGA rules. But I work in a completely different model concept. We usually call it "museum style", but you can call the style "shipyard building model". For an example of this style, I show a photo of the armored cruiser Asama, which was the main enemy of the Varyag in his last battle.

    It depends on the person. For example, for me, building a model is an opportunity to escape from the ongoing horror. And for some, this is an opportunity to find another reason for conflict.

    Shipman! I misunderstood you, so I must apologize but not you. The model is not finished yet and only my close friends modelers can see it. Please accept my sincere thanks.

    During the Russo-Japanese War, there was still no modern division along the national lines of the former Soviet republics. But it is better to talk about politics in other forums. We're here to build ship models.

    Yes, I can do the simplest electroplating on my own at home.
  6. Valeriy V
    Lou, I haven't gotten there yet. My growth process is not yet complete. I still have a lot to learn and significantly improve what I already know
  7. Valeriy V
    In these photos, all parts are nickel-plated except for yellow brass.
  8. Valeriy V
    Thank you! But I did not quite understand the question about filling details, I'm sorry.

    In this photo, the work of the mirror reflector is better visible.

    This is the whole set of spotlights for the cruiser.
  11. Valeriy V
    The assembly of the spotlight parts is completed.
  12. Valeriy V
    Installation of eye bolts and vertical aiming mechanism on the spotlight.
  13. Valeriy V
    I'm finishing up the projectors. Eye bolts.

    This will be a simple imitation without details, since they are practically invisible behind the glass.

    I posted a photo of this model on the first page of my topic. Crump's ship modellers were faced with the task of showing the appearance of the ship without delving into small details. They did an excellent job with this task. And I will be very happy if my model will look just as beautiful after the same 120 years.

    In the photographs of the Varyag, such blinds are not visible. Probably during the Russo-Japanese War they were not yet used on searchlights.
  17. Valeriy V
    Privet Veszett Roka! Yes, a simulated arc mechanism will be shown.
  18. Valeriy V
    The mirror reflector is installed in the spotlight body.
  19. Valeriy V
    All that remains for me is to insert a mirror reflector into the rear cover of the spotlight.
  20. Valeriy V
    После обработки на матрице и пуансоне получается сферическое зеркало-отражатель.
  21. Valeriy V
    As a result of the operation of the machine, a large number of mirror blanks were obtained.
  22. Valeriy V
    I send this blank to a punching machine to obtain round reflector parts.
  23. Valeriy V
    Making a reflector mirror for a spotlight. I polish the brass plate to a mirror finish. then I cover it with nickel and stick masking tape on top.
  24. Valeriy V
    Colleagues, thanks to everyone who is interested in my work. Thanks for your feedback, wishes and likes. I continue to work on the manufacture of spotlights....

    Gary, you want to look at this beauty without stopping, it fascinates!

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal.
