sub-builder Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I had some issues when building this kit. I do like the model, the castings really good and only needed a bit of sanding to get a good fit. My big issue was the photo-etch (again) and numerous repaints which led to some of the detail being lost. Anyway a British sub is always worth the time and I'm pleased with the result. Hopefully Micromir will bring out the K-class with the bow buoyancy tank I think they look great. If you want to see how good this kit can look check out Flankerman as usual. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimme Shelter Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 wow - that's a very long Sub. I don't know much about Subs and are not familiar with this class but it looks interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sub-builder Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 They are pretty interesting, they were faster than anything used operationally during WW2 on the surface. Although a diving time of 5 mins is laughable so probably best the idea of boiler driven subs was dropped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darby Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Only us Brits or Captain Nemo could come up with something as eccentric as the K class. CASEX wouldn't last long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
