For me the trench never was a big issue BUT the compressed superstructure is. That's what the Zvezda makes so flat lookin 😞 But I must say I really like the size way more then Bandai's.

First coat of paint. Tamyia XF-2 with some drops XF-19, a bit too much XF-19 (blueish) this time but that's ok it is "just" my testingthingsbuild 🙂

Comparing Bandai and Zvezda Bridge ... not fair to do honestly 😛

Yeah that is a lot of great detail. And they have the garbage chute!

 

Couple questions though. Some profile pics are showing what looks like a bend up at the bow? And the front wall detail at the front of the first deck house shows them slanting down towards the middle? That last I've seen on a few other pics, but the banana-curve in the bow is something new. Or am I just seeing things..?

There is a bending problem at the bow unfortunately. Not fully glued yet.

 

More progress 🙂

This can happen when accidentally using the wrong power supply (24V) ... I call it battle damage ... arghhh ... could have been a disaster though ... haha.
