GEORGIOS AVEROF CRUISER during the Naval Battle of Lemnos 1913. 1/700 scale YSmasterpieces.

The small in scale cruiser from YSmasterpieces has the same excellent quality as his big brother in 1/350. This model has built for my participation in IPMS Scale Model World in Telford. I get inspiration by a painting which is held in Naval Museum of Athens.
   The masts of the kit were rebuilt from brass rods. The resin barrels were also replaced from brass barrels. An elastic thread of 0.001dm was used for rigging. The aerial antennas were scratch built from photo etched rings and elastic thread. Smoke effects from the barrels were made by hand painted cotton and PVA glue. Water effects by bombs are from cotton and acrylic gel. As always the whole project has painted using acrylics and some oils for the sea.
