Sovremenny

1/200 Sovremenny Russian Destroyer (Trumpeter)

This is a project I started in Jan this year and finished in July. I used WEM etching from their Sovremenny set, which is expensive to me but I think it is a very good and detailed set. I did not used their turret set though. I used a mixture of Tamiya and Gunze paints for overall look and weathering. I think Trumpeter produced a very detailed kit which has many parts though some parts are hard to align with the main hull. The part where the chains supposed to link to the anchor are missing, so I had to create my own. Overall I'm pleased with the whole kit. I felt that this is the most detailed ship that I have personally built.
