Looking good G and some nice progress… What’s the overall length of the hull ?
Thanks for the kind feedback John, much appreciated, . The hull is just over 32" (approx. 870mm) stem-to-stern…I’m going to need a lot of DAS to model that quayside, .
G,
Blimey … thats a fair old size !! Certainly going to keep you busy !!
Hi all,
I’ve started work on the watertight door, I know it’s full of errors, but hopefully it’ll all be lost in the general clutter of the depth charge rails, and such stuff, .
Cheers,

Looks OK for 1/72nd scale. Certainly a huge improvement on the door in the kit.
Thanks Robin, I appreciate the positive feedback, .
G,
First off - enjoying the build. I might be able to helo you with those rivets. I’m currently doing a 1/72 Revell kit myself.
As for this:
Whenever I teach a class and folks are hesitant to ask questions, I say, “Come on now, there are no stupid questions. Just stupid people who ask questions.”
Yeah, that really gets them to open up.
I like your bridge, by the way. That’s another thing we have in common. But what is that thing hovering above it that looks sort of H.G. Wellsian?
War of the Worlds indeed
An obsessive-compulsive welders wet dream
Thanks for the positive feedback 18B, I certainly will be interested to hear how you do your rivets, something many folk will benefit from, .
‘Stupid people asking questions’ made me smile, reminded me of my first ever boss, he used to say something very similar, .
As for the Wellsian UHO (Unidentified Hovering Object), well that is the winding mechanism of a garden umbrella, it does look as if it’s threatening the bridge with imminent destruction… uh-oh, .
What is the nightmare project device? It looks like a cross between a wood chipper and a log burner, .
G,
It’s the main induction valve for a Gato class Submarine. My own 1/72 nightmare.
