1/700 Barbette Battleship Gangut, 1894 (Combrig)
This ship has a short biography - Commissioned in 1894 and sunk two years later after striking an unmarked underwater rock. After 6 hours or so struggle, the ship was lost and still lays at a depth of 29 meters in Baltic sea. The ship is relatively small if compared against Borodino or Alexander II. She shares the layout with Alexander II but has only 1 "big gun". She was my first experiment with rigging. Railing is "over-etched" Tom's (defect, but I was happy to get it!), Atlantic ratlines and all other parts are GMM.
