      Fabulous Mike ! Id never heard of this before now and have to admit when i first saw it I thought it was a midget sub!! A fascinating craft and a superb model , without the paint tinlet I'd have said it was a much larger scale . Excellent work on a tiny kit , cheers tony

          I though this too, weird design. Nicely done Mike, this looks awesome, and it is a change from the usual aeroplanes.

            As a torpedo boat fan I love it. I still can't get over the quality of your tiny builds. Hell I wish my 1/35 boats where that good.

                  Wot! No wings?


                  I'm so used to drooling over your aircraft builds I didn't even look at the title of your thread before I opened it. Nevertheless, this has the same immaculate build quality that your aircraft have. I like it very much.

                    Thank you for the kind words. I hope Brengun produce some more subjects in this scale, the kit was pretty much flawless (though the decals sucked).

                          That is a lovely build Mike, looks really good and the scale means it is even more impressive, nice job.
