I hope to see more of this too. I built a really small Gato sub (Sea Monkey) with a lot of molded on detail and perusing your build here answered a lotta questions I had about these subs I couldn't find answers to anywhere. Thanks!

Finally got some mojo back, but with it comes a serious rethink.
Large model submarine, very small car. Hmmm! this isn't going to work.
Out comes the fine razor saw & electric multi tool.
I have decided to section the hull into three separate parts, bow/centre/stern to be connected using very strong magnets.
Having used magnets on my previous build (S100 Schnellboot) I know just how strong a connection can be made.
Hopefully the photo's will be self explanatory.

As the main hull is still not cemented together, it has made realigning the gear box intermediate shafts a lot easier.
The gearbox needed to be lifted quite a lot as in the photo's.

As with all my builds, on hold at the moment as life has just seemed to get in the way recently.
Made a bit of progress on my Corvette as and when I get the time.
Hopefully back soon.Comment
