Hi cols,
Decided to have a small rest from my Salamander and started a new project.
This is a new manufacturer from Russia - Piroscaf and their first model.
The 28 feet steam boat as of 1876. Probably the boat was based on the Russian cruiser "Genaral - admiral".
Chosed this small project due to several reasons: it is dated as a birth year of my beloved grand grandpa, who was a sailor on Koreets in russian-japanese war and participated in Chemulpo battle alongside with Varyag.
Then, the scale: 1:24. A chance to make it maximum detailed.
And the last, but not least- have a dream to build something in Russian palace style (polished wood and polished brass and steel).
Now the hull is almost completed, adding some pics)))
Stay tuned)))
