Lovely detailing work for sure. There's a few of these I am keen on seeing in the bucket (Bogatyr and Almaz especially) to complete the real would ships that fit into my AU, plus they are also gorgeous looking vessels.
Glad to see more pre-WW1 stuff on these boards.

Very nice rendition of the Poltava. Now, while the Borodinos essentially were similar, there were marked differences between Poltava, Petropavlovsk (Makarov's flagship!) and Sevastopol. Could you make the entire class thus?
Another thing: where's the considerable tumblehome beneath the 6" wing turrets? That was a characteristic feature of this, the Russian Royal Sovereign edition.
Otherwise, you rock with your drawings!

Another excellent Russian pre-dreadnought drawing. This is a really nice piece of art. I think there are a quite a few Russian pre-dreadnoughts in SB now, and its nice to see more!
