A little previev on my current project, the Type 1144 Kirov battlecruiser

Superstructure size increased and number shadow removed

Is it just me or is russian units becomming very popular to make?

anyway cool unit:goodjob:
 
Man, you work fast. excellent stuff here, even verticle launcher tubes.
 
Isnt it a little big? ;)

j/k great looking unit, i really have to learn 3D modeling
 
Excellent! But I think it could do with the super-structure being slightly bigger (as in the pic below) otherwise the deck looks a bit empty. If this is difficult to do, then don't bother, it looks great anyway. :)

Oh... This is some nice-looking azz-kicking piece of floating nuclear-powered heavily-armoured beauty... I am looking forward to add it to my collection of naval units. It will supplement "Kiev" cruiser-carrier well for Russians.
What a/d/m values should it have? My guess is 24/18/7. Plus 2 cruise missiles (or tactical nukes). Attack should be above BB level, but defence and bombardment - inferior to them, with speed on the cruiser/carrier scale (7 in my editor).

How beautiful these ships are! It's a pity "Admiral Ushacov" will be retired from Russian Navy. These guys really rulles the sea.

By the way, anybody tried to create an art for Russian "Slava" class missile cruisers? Those are unique-looking and beautifull too!

Looking good Akula :goodjob:
 
Your unit looks great. I noticed some of the naval units don't rock back and forth like the ones that come with the game. Is this one going to?
 
It is a good looking model... One point, the Number on the front seems to cast a shadow, isn't a big problem but it might look better flush with the side.
 
Okay I will increase the size of the superstructure, and try to remove the shadows the Number cast
 
An impressing unit.
T-90, Typhoon, Akula and Kirov.
I think it´s time to play Russia again.
 
I am sure not will forget the Spetsnaz or BTR 80.
In fact I am planning to give the Spetsnaz a very
high combat power and shield cost since it`s
a elite unit.
I have already done this with the marine and
paratroopers units since I think they have a to
low combat rating.
 
And dont foget the kiev carrier ;) So many kewl russian units. Cool unit btw Akula, thanks for taking that one of my shoulders. Looking forward to seeing it complete:goodjob:
 
I have the Kiev carrier in the game now with
capability to transport 2 air units and bombard
strenght (to reflect SSM:s).
