Trumpeters Sovremenny in 1:350
I finished the Sovremenny in December 2008.

The russian ones look better though, and since I had won the kit at a contest, I thought [...]

Admiral Hipper
Trumpeters Admiral Hipper, that I built in the spring of 2012, is typical of their ship kits. It's basically a good kit but nothing extraordinary.
