The kit will make a really fine model, not to mention authentically correct according to a Russian Navy shipyard's plans and archive documents.

1. Yes, the parts will have to be shaped with water and then heated. There is no way to do it without that.
2. No 0.6 veneer to use at all, not even from personal supplies, the kit is 100% complete with the necessary parts.

Thank you!

Thanks for the offer. We are currently finding an interpreter here in Moscow, we'll see what happens.

We are almost finished with the English translation!

This is what the finished carronade in the bow of the boat looks like. The thin rope is in reality beige, not white - the photo was distorted by the colour.

Unfortunately we have to inform you that it is currently very difficult to ship kits outside of Russia. We are also no longer able to pay via Paypal, at the moment only Payoneer is available.

We are preparing the final photo shoot.

Russia? Armed gunboat? Oh yes, that sounds about right for this excellent model.
I'll order one when the dust settles. May be.

Admin....please note this comment is about the model and where it's from, NOT a political statement.

That's a lovely model.
It's beyond my skill level, but wouldn't it be grand to see one of these incorporating some signs of wear and tear, like it's seen some use?

As usual, superb quality of your kits @Piroscaf This one is no exception.
