28mm pulp submarine
« on: August 08, 2018, 08:00:03 PM »
Hey all....
I have a new sub to show....
As usual, it is scratch built from cardboard, foam core, plastic tube, and sewing snaps for the hatch handles.








the guns and periscope/antenna are removable for transport, and the diving planes move up and down.
 Let me know what ya think...
Cheers,
Carl

That is marvelous! I'd love to see a few pictures to see how you achieved it. Do you work from a template?

Stunning work!   :-* :-* :-*

Well done, that man.

Thanks guys!!....chickenbane, I do work initially from a template....but allow it to go where it may soon after so as none of my minis look the same...maybe similar, but always different.
Cheers,

Oh that's fabulous - nice pulpy feel. I really like the rust effects too. Need something along these lines for my Ice Station scenario (that has been a long time coming).
Great work - would love to see it in action
