    Soviet submarine K-3 Leninsky Komsomol - Wikipedia

    Remarkable new display has that famous set designer ken Adam (James Bond movie set look). Display shows some details of this interesting sub.

    K-3 was designed by Vladimir Peregoudoy.

    He lived to be 91, I doubt the crew that manned that sewer pipe he designed lived as long..

    The Russian mind-set -- throw bodies at the problem till the problem goes away. Savage pragmatism at work over there. Tough, crazy, SOB's!

Bought it before the Russian invasion of the Ukraine and had it in the backlog for a few years. Kit is like the original boat…a bit shabby, but with patience and putty one can build a decent display of an historic boat with very unique outlines …

    Excellent job on that kit. And the weathering is near perfect. Less is more!
