Excellent model, nicely done with a huge amount of details. I like the figures on the ship. Is this the Kombrig Kit? How was the general fitting?

cheers

Really wonderful work. With Great War warships, it seems designers compensated for minimal superstructures with even more elaborate rigs. My compliments on the precise and fine rigging--everything looks like it has a purpose.

Ah there she is, our last class of battleships. You made a wonderfull job Veniamin. I only wished someone would produce this class as mainstream kit, maybe along with some cruisers... well wishfull thinking.

I'm waiting for years now to get the 1/700 Combrig Version. Announced and then postponed to the next year.... Your 1/350 build is fantastic !
