Kursk SSGN

1/700 Kursk SSGN (Tamiya)

Here's the pictures of my latest issue: Tamiya scale 1/700 submarine "Kursk". Due to the shape a submarine is nothing special to build and photograph, I searched long time for achieving best painting results: I wanted a deep black but semi-glossy hull, however all paints such as Tamiya, ModellMaster and Revell did not give my the deired results. After all, I ended up at paint for car accessories available at any local dealer: I used black spray paint intended for car exhausts. This paint gives the plastic surface of the kit a little structural look, see photos. Water made from silicone on glass base.
