Look what the postman just delivered - all the way from the snowy wastes of Severodvinsk in Russia.....
It's a 1/350 scale resin kit of HMS Oberon.......
Cast in solid, chocolate coloured resin, it looks to be free of pinholes, with just a small casting seam along the hull...
There are few parts - the above hull, plus a conning tower, fore and aft dive planes, two propellers, two masts and two styles of sonar dome...
There are no instructions nor markings - but that isn't a problem - I think I can work it out.
I got it from this eBay seller :-

...and service was excellent - ordered on 21 June, posted on 28 Jun, delivered on 8 July.
I might try to make it as HMS Opossum - with an interesting camo scheme and 'sharkmouth'.
....and it might inspire me to finish my HMS Tabard build......
