Petropavlosk Class BB 1:2400 Scale
Description
From Wikipedia: The Petropavlovsk class, sometimes referred to as the Poltava class, was a group of three pre-dreadnought battleships built for the Imperial Russian Navy during the 1890s. They were transferred to the Pacific Squadron shortly after their completion in 1899–1900 and were based at Port Arthur before the start of the Russo-Japanese War of 1904–1905. All three ships participated in the Battle of Port Arthur on the second day of the war. Petropavlovsk sank two months after the war began after striking one or more mines laid by the Japanese. Her two sister ships, Sevastopol and Poltava, took part in the Battle of the Yellow Sea in August 1904 and were sunk or scuttled during the final stages of the Siege of Port Arthur in early 1905. Some of the finer details like the 6-inch guns/turrets can be difficult to see on the model. The masts as I've done them are also quite fragile. I may remove them and leave it up to future printers to drill holes and attach wire masts as they desire.
