Here is my completed Trumpeter 1:350 Sovermney Destroyer. It features aftermarket railings and ladders. I tried to weather the hull with a black + Burnt Serria+Cobalt Blue dot wash to give it that service look. I also used some rust around the anchors to show signs of age.
The upper decks were weathered with a pin wash of black +burnt serria. I attached some .10 guage wire as attennas and scratch built the rings and arieal wires that run from the helicopter pad to the main mast as well as the one from the attenna tower down to the helicopter pad.
This is the first ship as I normally do armour and planes. I will try another…but not right now…
[Y] on your ship effort, especially with all the PE, and you threw in some scratchbuilding to boot! But as a 1/700 ship modeler, yeah, I know, they can get daunting.
The red color is what Russian ship’s decks are currently painted with, as opposed to the US Navy deck gray we’re more familiar with. Why? Who knows! maybe they just think it looks prettier.
