Anyone ever used this website?
« on: October 07, 2014, 09:38:05 pm »

Hi everyone


Whilst I was searching for information about pre-dreadnoughts and in particular pictures I came across this website:


http://russia-best.com/product/model-ship-plan-russian-battleship-borodino/


Has anyone used them and are they any good in regards to quality of the plans- just seem rather cheap for the actual plans and the number of drawings included in the price.

Nick,
I have their BK1124 drawings, admittedly bought from a site in Poland , and it is pretty good. As you say, not expensive.

£14 for a set of  A3  plans, can't be bad.  Well worth a  'look see'

Cheers

Almost forgot to reply to this thread :embarrassed:


Just to let you all know that the service is excellent and the quality very good. They are all printed on A3 in a similar fashion to the Profile Morskie plans layout and include some very good hull lines and close ups of detail.
Pavel is quite friendly, and the plans took three weeks to get here from Moscow using the method of shipment I chose- there are other options.
Essentially everything to scratch build a Russian pre dreadnought (Borodino) or protected cruiser (Bark- I think thats how it translates!).
