  1. On the Varyag, these guns were in the wardroom. In the stowed position, the glass windows were closed with steel folding shutters.
  2. The stern gun casemates are not yet ready. They are temporarily covered with paper to prevent dust from getting inside.
  3. Colleagues, thank you for your concern for me and warm feedback! Everything is fine with me and I really hope that this will continue in the future. It is impossible to live without hope. While there is a possibility, I continue my work on the model. Gathered together the details of the aft balcony.
  4. The best way to distract from bad thoughts is to continue building the model.
  5. Colleagues, friends, thank you for your sincere words of support. I'm fine and I hope this madness ends soon.
  6. Until plan "B" is ready, I'll have to use an old match. Manufacture of running lights.
  7. Lou, I realized that my little trick with the big match failed. I'll have to think of a plan "B"... Thank you for your cheerful feedback.
  8. Wefalck is absolutely right. Standing rigging depends on the prototype ship model. On the Varangian, he was steel. On my model, the rods for vyblenka are screwed with brass wire with a diameter of 0.08 mm.
  9. Thanks Keith. Metal ratlines are therefore easier to work with than rope ones.
  10. Keith , it's simple. All problems are solved by a jewelry scraper and sandpaper.
  11. It is fixed between two parts of the mast. Like a washer between a nut and a bolt head. If I understood you correctly.
  12. Hi Sasha. I'm afraid I didn't understand your question. Google translator distorts a lot when translating three times. Show on the photo with an arrow what detail you are asking about.
  13. Thanks Keith. So I missed this conversation. Undoubtedly, mahogany looks much more attractive on the hull of the yacht.
  14. Keith , is the rudder blade on a real yacht made of wood or metal with a wood top? Very neat and clean work!
  15. Keith, the build looks great! It is with pleasure that I continue to observe the excellent work.
  16. Ras, fire buckets were kept empty, the handles of the buckets were not made of metal, probably so that they would not heat up in a fire.
  17. I recognize the German style of work - make a Maybach out of any simple mechanism.
  18. Hi Olga! Glad to meet you on this forum! In 2016, in Zaporozhye, together with Yaroslav, we went to the museum of the island of Khortytsya. Привет, Ольга! Рад встретить тебя на этом форуме! В 2016г в Запорожье вместе с Ярославом ездили в музей острова Хортица.
