Subject: Russian Battleship Riurik 1/200 cardmodel (GPM) Date: Sun, 2 Feb 2003 16:52:57 +0100 From: "Ulrich Stork" To: Hello. Since I not only build plastic models it took now about 18 months to finish the polish GPM cardmodel-kit of the "Russian Battleship Riurik"of 1905 in scale 1/200 . The kit contains of nearly 1800 parts , that have to be bend , folden and of course cut out to get an very impressing result . The completed Riurik is about 81 cm long , 14 cm width and 28 cm high . I added some photoetched parts by HMV (Scheuer&Struever , Germany) . These ladders look much better and realistic as paper ever can be . The relings are made of plastic and thread , some are rests of Trumpeters "Sovremeny". I hope you enjoy the pictures and may try your own cardkit. Greetings from Germany.
