1/350 Admiral Ushakov (Trumpeter)
This is the Trumpeter Kirov that, when the kit arrived I was surprised with its large size. My research came from the net and various build reviews, many being very helpful as the kit is apparently a mix of the Kirov and Frunze. Acrylics were used for paint with the main deck also having several coats of MIG Filters for some weathering. I used the White Ensign Kirov Etch set and it was quite easy to install, I also added 2 sets of Master Models O.H. Perry Aerials to finish the kit. Overall a very enjoyable build.
