This is my first serious model after my comeback to hobby after 7 years without models. Twenty years I built models of airplanes, and one time I decided to build ships. The model of battleship Sevastopol is built at the moment of the end of construction near Baltic shipyard wall at first two weeks of September 1914. As the main detail set, I used a North Star Models detail set for Sevastopol. In addition to him I used different etched and resin aftermarket detail sets: · Master 1/350 gun barrels set for Sevastopol-class battleships · North Star Models 1/350 long ladders · North Star Models 1/350 clamp-ladders · North Star Models 1/350 resin lifebuoys · 3 sets Flyhawk Model 1/350 IJN Brass Strip · Rainbow 1/700 Fixing rings of flues · Complect ZIP 1/350 resin six-rope whaleboat · Complect ZIP 1/350 resin 76-mm Lender AA-guns · Elf 1/72 aviation navigation lights · Begemot 1/350 Russia/USSR decal flags · special decal 1/350 Russian Empire Fleet flags and pennants Figures: · North Star Models 1/350 resin Russian Empire Fleet sailors at work – Part 1 · North Star Models 1/350 resin Russian Empire Fleet sailors at work – Part 2 Scratchbuild and improvements: · boat booms · flagpoles and jackstaff · ventilation pipes near anchor hawses · yards and platforms at foremast · steam engine speed indicators at foremast halyards · correct bow, rudder and propellers · forward garbage chutes · boxes for signal flags at aft superstructure · flagpoles at motor boats · air shafts for officer wardroom · ladders for crew at boat booms · relocate 3 forward pairs of booms for anti-torpedo net · made holes at motor boat funnels and funnel pipes · imitation of glass at windows at main bridge made by Microscale Liquid Decal Film · rigging made using by fiber of Spandex thread (analog of Infini lycra) · insulator at rigging made using by thickened paint Paint and weathering: · Gunze Sangyo Mr. Color paints · Gunze Sangyo Mr. Color semi-gloss lacquer · MIG neutral wash · AK Interactive Wash for deck · Waterline made using by Aizu Micron 1 mm masking tape Work on the model began in early 2014 and ended at the end of 2015. Total number of details - more than 2000: 292 plastic parts from initial kit, 753 parts from North Star Models detail set, 162 resin parts, 515 etched parts from over detail sets and 295 scratchbuild parts/details.
