1/350 Varyag (Zvezda)
Here are a few shots of a Zvezda Varyag in 1/350 scale. The quality of this kit is very good, nice details and realistic look. I added railings, anchor chains, rigging and some final touch of weathering. This should be the peacetime colour scheme. Varyag was the first Russian ship involved in the Russian-Japanese war, during the fight of Chemulpo in 1904 (I think). It was damaged by fire of overwelming Japanese forces, and scuttled by its crew.
