Having previously made the Asry-Centrax gas turbine Powerbarge model last year, Centrax returned in need of two more models to be displayed internationally. These 1:25 gas turbine models were built like proverbial tanks to withstand international travel and constant heavy transport; where possible, mechanical fixings have been used and the larger components are threaded through with steel bars, bolted firmly to the baseboard to guarantee that nothing will shear free in transit.
Being a larger scale than the previous gas turbine model, which included the seafaring barge platform, we were able to really cram in the details where it counted, down to shutlines, rivetholes and individually applied printed warning labels.
One model will head to the US, while the other will go to Russia.
