Progress on the interior of the 1/72 scale Type II submarine Vesikko. The crew compartment in the bow torpedo room, just above the battery bunker. The crew lockers were painted white, the section for the officers had lockers clad in wooden veneer. The floor plates were removable and covered in green linoleum. 

Progress on my 1/72 scale Type II submarine Vesikko with interior. I finished the bow torpedo room today. I added the bunks and foldable tables between them. The officer section got cupboards broader beds. I added the torpedo loading hatch and allot of equipment below the pressure hull roof, such as support beams for the torpedo hoists, the housing of the optical path to the magnetic compass, the rudder transmission to the conning tower and a few switch boxes. I‘m very pleased with the outcome.
