Shar2 Posted July 7, 2011 Author Share Posted July 7, 2011 Thanks Ross. Yeah, isn't it about time you got back to building the Sovremenny? Nothing wrong with Ikea stuff Dan. That Lazy Susan is very handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

modelman182 Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Truly beautiful work, Dave! Nice to see her sat next to KGV, too. Scharny looks kinda like a 'slim hipped sister' to the KGV (if you forget about them being opposite sides, of course)! Gold teacups to hold her up - how ostentatious! hee hee... Been great to follow this one - one for prominent display, I'd say. Cheers Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bootneck Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Hi Dave, tremendous model (museum standard) and a pleasure to see. I also liked the KGV and am now thinking that my POW needs to come back out of its box and get started.......... Naw, I'm not up to that standard yet, especially after seeing yours!

Cheers Mike Thanks for the comments Mike, you'll be able to see her at Yeovilton in October. Rubbish, if you can produce great models in 1/144, (which you do), then it's really only a minor drop down to 1/350. You've obviously got the patience, so get the PoW out and give it a go.
