Inner fins done and a side on pic of it and John to give an indication of the size of the thing.

Huge! I can almost see Capt. Waterman standing on the bridge.

Well Im planning on adding a few extras in this build, But trying to reconcile the full size conning tower set to the model one will be a bit of a challenge.

[RCnut]

Did a bit more to it, vents all boxed in and conning tower smoothed off.

[RCnut]

End caps on, conning tower on and secured with the single back flat head screw

[RCnut]

Added the sky1 exhaust ports today, Happy new year all :)

[RCnut]

Well its back to this after a bit of time, I'll start adding the detail parts this week, I cleaned up around the Diver exhaust vents.

Mamas, what are you going to do where the propulsion pods join the hull? You know, where you have multiple grooves running horizontally on the curved bullnose piece. On the smaller ones you said that you used Plasticard to form them. On this 6 ft. one looks like that bullnose piece is already there but without any grooves.

Mark, I'm lost, what grooves and you mean the tail of the Hull is the bullnose?

[greenman407]

About midway of the sail, on the far outside of the hull, where the propulsion pods join the hull, its rounded. There are slots running thru there horizontally.....................you know

Ohhhhh Those..... Well the 5 footer ones were a bit of a mod I decided to do they were not strictly cannon. On this one I will create recessed lines/Depressions and Spray them gunmetal. These will be more in keeping with the original model.
