Norseman 3:16 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Oh interesting! I have this kit in the stash and was thinking about tackling it after I finish a few things on the bench. I can't give any advice, but i will be a avid spectator. Looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just thought I’d ask, lots if research ahead of me I think, before putting glue to plastic. Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArnoldAmbrose Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Gidday Jon, This ship is sadly of a time a bit before my main era of interest also, so it looks like you're going to be Britmodeller's pioneer with this build. Look on the bright side - if you make an error who's going to know? I've googled the ship, there are a few images of the ship or models of it that may help you. I think it's good that someone like your self is going to give it a go - without ships of that era there'd be no ships of later eras. Don't be too concerned about being bitten by the ship bug. I was infected over fifty years ago. The condition can be chronic (long term), sometimes life-long, somewhat contagious but rarely with serious side effects. 🙂 I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with this, as it appears others are too. You never know, you may infect me with your 'strain' of the virus, giving me the urge to do a ship of that vintage also. Regards, Jeff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not the first to build this ship. If I can get close to this quality, I’ll be happy. Jon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmitriy1967 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Just now I saw the topic about Varyag. I don't know, maybe it's too late and you've assembled a model. But here is a link to a Russian model website with a topic about Varyag. I hope Google will help with the translation. Varyag is a legendary ship in Russia, there are even songs about it 🙂 If there are specific questions, write, I will try to help find information. http://forums.airbase.ru/2014/09/t67904--krejser-varyag-vremen-ryav.html 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
