SaltyDog Posted Sunday at 09:41 PM #1 Posted Sunday at 09:41 PM Not content to have several other models in the pipeline, I started to build this Russian Battleship from Trumpeter in 1:350. It's a nice kit complete with some photoetch. The two halves of the hull went together nicely and then I sealed the seam with a line of CA that I sanded down when dry.

SaltyDog Posted Monday at 12:26 AM Author #2 Posted Monday at 12:26 AM I washed all the sprues and plastic parts in soapy water and when dry I airbrushed a coat of tan acrylic paint on the deck surfaces. GrandpaPhil, Canute and yvesvidal 3
ccoyle Posted Monday at 02:41 AM #3 Posted Monday at 02:41 AM Love a good pre-Dreadnought! I took the liberty of editing your title to reflect the fact that the kit is intended to depict Tsesarevich as he (the Russians use masculine pronouns for ships) appeared in 1917; he was launched in 1903.

SaltyDog Posted Tuesday at 02:02 AM Author #4 Posted Tuesday at 02:02 AM (edited) Applied a coat of primer to the hull and some of the deck sub structures. I then applied a base coat of acrylic grey paint and assembled the deck and sub structures. Edited Tuesday at 05:51 PM by SaltyDog yvesvidal, ccoyle and GrandpaPhil 3
