Good day to all! I decided to put on display Missouri I collected a year and a half ago.

In autumn 2010 I was on a business trip in NY, I came across one store, saw there a kit of a battleship model, and an idea to build occupied my mind. The scale of construction was beckoning me.

At that time I was not familiar with any etching, or with putty, and I saw Tamia paints for the first time in that store and bought them to try. Before that I dealt only with “Star” acrylic.

The kit pleasantly surprised me with very good quality of cast parts. It was a pleasure to assemble, after the kits from “Star” I didn’t even suspect that this could exist. :)

The battleship model is assembled almost from the box. Among the additions I can name guard rails from molding tree; also I re-made a crane on the poop, I made it from the molding tree, because the crane in the kit was totally a plastic “boomerang”, no openwork.
I was painting USS Missouri somewhere with a brush, somewhere with an airbrush. I used acrylic paints “Star” and “Tamia”, after working with which I realized what should be called real paint. During the construction I didn’t use shading, tones and other bad words – I don’t possess the magic of 3rd level… But it’s never too late to learn.
In general, check it out.
Sincerely.
