Сестрорецк [Sestroretsk] Scratchbuild scale 1/64 Russ. torpedo boat 1894

Thank you very much - so it is now my task to become your letter into this Art Noveau styled.
To be honest - that sounds like real fun Okay
In the 19th century it was transcribed in different ways. Sestrorestk, Sestroretsk
;)
The name was written in capital letters only.
Elvish script was not used.)

Font from the St. Petersburg Port Album. The second sheet from the left is for large ships. The one on the right is for small ships. The third sheet is the indentation mark font.

It's better to write it like this СЕСТРОРЕЦКЪ.
The letter "Ъ" was almost never used in the title.
If I were you, I wouldn't write it.

A good example.)) It's a shame the model isn't from the 18th century.
 
I will gladly agree with you if you help me find this letter in the names of other destroyers.

I'll repeat this one last time. The letter Ѣ isn't needed in every word, but where it is, it's written. This isn't an embellishment, but a grammatical rule. The rules are described here: https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ять_в_дореформенной_русской_орфографии
It’s not shameful to not know, it’s shameful to insist on your ignorance.
From my side, the conversation is over.
