Alright Modelees of those bloody boats, My next two ship kits are here, And I want to do them both and put them in a Dio together. However, I want to see which one I should do first in your opinion. This will either be the Blog for it, or Ill start a new thread as the blog. Depends on what the mods will allow, I dont want to spam. Anyway, without further Ado,

Its between the Trumpeter 1/700th Scale USSR Minsk, a Kiev class Helicopter carrier. or USSR Frunze, a 1/700th scale Kirov class Battle cruiser.
