As a side note, "Torpedoes" of the US Civil War era were what we would call "mines" today as Whitehead's invention was a ways down the road.

Ship's coming along nicely! Cheers: Tom

Thank you !

I confess I did not received so much encouragement for long.

Build is finished, however I have to varnish upper part of ship, and do rigging in uschi line.

main mast done, and ship has been dullcoated by airbrush.

I will rig it with Uschi line, my usual method. And then, just add awaiting small deck features (pompom, guns, boats, torp launcher,...).

I managed to finish rigging today !

everything in place, and flag added.

You may be proud of yourself, you did the Cossack justice!

Did you think of a particular epsode in her history btw? I would guess you modelled her about the Altmark incident or maybe the final battle around the Bismarck. Commander Vian anyway.

I thought about post Altmark incident, because I wanted some eyecatching feature like white pennant numbers, as those were added after incident.

Otherwise, a plain grey hull would have been somewhat empty.

Ooops !

I forgot the two bridge semaphores ! scratchbuilt with railing parts.
