Thanx :) The submarine is a grateful and quite simple model, which can be moved somewhere completely different with modifications... The most laborious part was plating the hull and then riveting... however, every rivet had to be driven out, then glued, and when the rivets started to fall...

Thanx ;)

Thank you, I really didn't expect this...it's a great honor for me ;)

So I'm done, a little summary of the whole build: There are several models of this submarine, one was published in ABC magazine, I chose the free model by Pavel Styl because it is closer to the original from the movie. I modified the model, it is completely spray-painted/painted with a base. I...

I sprayed the hull of the submarine with silver metallic and painted the accessories with 2 shades of bronze. It all got a steampunk look... I still have some minor repairs to make, the light and window covers, the pad...

So the submarine is ready to be sprayed with the base color... I tried to pull everything that was just drawn out a little so that I wouldn't have large empty areas left after spraying... the rivets could have been a little smaller, but whatever, I'll see how it looks after spraying...

The TATRA is pretty much glued together, thanks to the large windows the crew can be seen quite well, so it wasn't such a useless job... I'll still make a small pad...

The model is finished. My modifications: I slightly modified the wheels, lights and a few other small things, dusted the car a little and made a simple mat.

On ebay, TEMU or elsewhere you can buy plastic figures in various scales (I have bought from 1:25 to 1:250). I buy them white and I modify and paint them myself as needed. (The colored ones are usually more expensive and are not painted well) ;)

So I've made some progress, I have the cabin finished with the interior and crew... it won't be much to see, so at least I took a few photos now...
