Is this a scratchbuilt model? If so: Please tell Us how You did it!

...and please tell us more about how You did the brilliant looking ice!

Yummy. Watch out for ichthyosaurs, megalodons and such.

I once started a topic called 'U-boote Heraus', though it was on another forum. Now  we finally have some common ground.  :)

Plynkes, my dear, I have plenty of WWI stuff to share with you.

As a matter of fact I have that famous WWI "Uboote heraus!" propaganda poster in my study. Got it at Imperial War Museum oh so many years ago.

oooh how loverly that it is!   Can't believe how you manage to constantly churn out truly inspiring stuff!  Pretty please can we have some close-ups of the sailors?

Think I shall have to restart work on my tunnel into your gaming room!
