WIP 1:350 Mikro-Mir HMS M1

I have, I want to build a British X1 and you need to butcher a British K class to create one.
I would like a 1:72 Surcouf

Are you a fan of Cruiser subs too? :smiling3:

Ships in general, but waterlining subs has taken my fancy recently..................

MikroMir Holland A1 in 1/144. I've done a U Type IIB in 1/144 as well
I have the 1/350 Surcouf in the stash, and I may waterline that, with the crane lifting a seaplane........
Are there any models of the USS Argonaut?, the early one with two 6 inch guns...........

Nice, that feels very nautilus. The 1/350 Surcouf is a nicer kit than the M1 but I am a sucker for MikroMir. I haven't seen the USS Argonaut.
Have you read X.1: The Royal Navy's Mystery Submarine?

Decals are done, washes next. I think my depth markers are a little low but oh well. Happy so far.

Looking very good

Thank mate

Long delay, but I am calling my 1:350 Mikro-Mir HMS M1 complete; I have ordered a case as it is destined to sit on the bookcase next to Surcouf. Not 100% happy, but on to the next thing :smiling3:

It's taken a while Alexander, but well worth the wait. A cracking build and should look great in the case on your shelf.

papa 695, Thank you for the great feedback. I have been working on my 1:1 scale house :rolling:, but I got my priorities straight and did some modelling

I think that is one beautiful display model Alexander - I'd be proud to expose that to public scrutiny on my shelves! Really lovely model!
