"MSW Crew-mate Veniamin Litvin (Litvin70), sends in his first submission to us, his fine build of Russian battleship Knyaz Potemkin Tavrichesky, in this "On Display" feature!"
This is my 1/400 scale model of Russian navy battleship "Knyaz Potemkin Tavrichesky" 1905. The manufacturer of the kit is ARK Models.
I also used the following enhancements, PE: Part, ACE, WEM, Fly Hawk and my friend AskOld(Gennadiy) .
Brass barrels - RB models
Сrew, chains - L'arsenal
Paints: Zvezda, Tamiya, Microsсale.
It is my second try to build "Potemkin". First try was in 1984.

Wonderful build. I love the looks of those old ships. They have a personality to them.
Thanks for sharing her with us.

Hello Veniamin
A very fine model, with a very good result!
I also like the fact that you have included non flat sailors...
Congratulations!
Cheers,

A truly excellent build Veniamin, beautiful !
I have the Zvezda Borodino with White Ensign PE in my stash and if i can get it built and looking half as good as your build I will be a happy man !

Check out the cast metal finish evident on the black portion of the hull, superstructure and guns--a very nice touch.
Is the basic kit from the Heller molds?

Beautuful looking ship, love the black which looks like old metal/iron like these dreds had in old photographs (all being B/W) very nice.
