#066 Empire in Decay - Victor III
A Soviet Victor III tied up to a wharf and left to decay in the toxic sludge … modelled from the Dragon 1:700 kit (no electronics in this one).
Notes
The Soviet Victor III Project 671RTM/RTMK Shchuka (pike) entered service with the Northern Fleet in 1979; 25 were produced until 1991.
Build Log
The Dragon kit has two subs; I’ve just pulled the Victor III out of the box for this build. It’s a very simple build; primed in black.
Planning a dockside diorama with some “found materials” from around the workshop
Some initial rust washes as the basis for serious weathering
“Empire in Decay”. Final resin pour tonight, fingers crossed! Will just need final finishing and some more toxic discharge;-)
This is Dragon kit of the Victor III that I picked up for a bargain (2fer with HMS Revenge).
Final water effects and toxic discharge…
