Daren't watch, it'll probably show all the bits where I've done the model wrong :-D

Right, redoing it in green with an awning and a bar (joke!)

Great model of a beautiful plane! The "remove before flight" stuff and the weapon details really stand out!
The cockpit looks like it's a different scale..

I thought this sub was based on the Nautilus submarine class, but apparently this is a separate class, obviusly looking a little different on top at least. Hm, I thought maybe USS Nautilus was a class on its own with other subs, but maybe it was just unique?

Tip: If you buy those Trumpeter chisel tools, you can "easily" re-shape the chisels, to be come thinner, and fit into the many cavities on a sub kit. I had to tediously use inappropriate metal files to thin the width of one of my chisels, and wish I had a machine tool for re-shaping the chisels which would have been so much easier, and more precise.

Btw, the Mikro-Mir Nautilus kit comes with a photo etch deck.

@Treehugger - Nautilus as in SSN-571, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Nautilus_(SSN-571) ? She was nuclear powered and conventionally armed, whereas Growler was diesel electric powered but nuclear armed. Not sure how much commonality there was between the two despite coming from the same era.

I'll have a look for the chisels - this plastic is very brittle though, I'm getting wary of doing too much work on it as little bits have snapped already - e.g. there's a nick in the wing tip of the Regulus 1 already 🙁

Ooh, I feel better about my makeshift bombload now, just seen some 1940s footage where they were loading square tailed bombs (and a cookie cutter) like my effort above.

Nice job, mine is still in the box, but on the list for someday.
