That is part of the original superstructure of former Varyag (present CV16 Liaoning) that was removed in 2010 or 2011 and replaced with one now housed the main radar panel of Liaoning.

It is rumoured that the shipyard has turned it into a warehouse or store.

Does anyone know who's this artist, how to contact him - and maybe arrange a contact with me - ???

I would love to use his artworks for my next project and even pay a fair and reasonable price.

Thanks in advance,
Deino
