Hi All,
Last week Baev at Soga Miniatures shipped us two sets of Zvezda's 1/350 Sevastopol kit with various references and information.
And some WWI era fans have asked us to let them meet the detail up set as Dreadnought.And some of them have sent us many photos, plans and some information.

So we've started this project.
I think all of these references are not enough for perfection but we will do our best in design and try to make you be satisfied with our detail up set.
The general contents may be similar as Dreadnought detail up set.

We try to show the first product by early September.

Keep your eyes on this Thread.

If you have any suggestion or advice, please post and leave message on this thread.

Thank you
Keumho Kim

Thank you

The deck sticker doesn't look right. The planks layout looks substituted with metal strips like for japanese linoleum wich might look even more stange on a finished model.

Yep this is just fitting sample applied for matching the size.
The mass product will have much thinner metal stripe.
This thinner stripes are also applied over the Wood deck but it will seem as same height with Wood with on eyes.
The important effect is these stripes are different material with wood.

Thank you
Kim

Hi there!
There was no metal stripes, but wood planks. Why not to depict it the usual way?

Those brass bollards look fantastic,

These perpendicular, across deck strips, whether wood or metal, if there purpose was to hold down the deck planks, wouldn,t they stand slightly above the deck as Mr. Kim has them in photo's? If they are not there to hold down planks, what is their purpose? They seem to be unique to the Russian Navy. Really looking forward to getting this set.
Thanks Dan

I thought small bollard parts are better to be trimmed by modeler than Brass.
Thank you

I don't know how to attach pictures from books but if you get your hands on"Famous Warships Monographs, The Russian Battleships Sevastopol Class" by Maciej S. Sobanski, there are close up pictures on pgs. 17, 26, and 51, that definatly show them to be metal. They don't stand very high as I am sure they would be tripping hasards. The picture on Pg. 51 shows a hole in the deck due to damage from the March 1921 Kronshtadt rebellion on Petropavlovsk. The decking around the hole has been removed and a damaged piece of the metal strip is shown bent and twisted still laying across the deck.
On another note, is the deck and the upgrade set to be sold seperately or together.
Thanks Dan

Guest and Dan,

We have tried to realize 1914-1915 Sevastopol and at least in this era wood decks are under these thin steel plates with regular reivets.
I've seen at later some of these are removed or replanked without steel plates.
So I think taht Steel Plates are usual way at this time.

Thank you
Kim

Dear Kim, are you planning to include flagstocks and proper scale nautical chain in the kit?
