Making a Whiskey on the rocks

[Dalauppror]

Hi all

I thought I should share some pictures of how I built my Whiskey-class submarine for my WSS-83 article. The Russian submarine U-137 got stuck on a rock in a Swedish military zone on the 27 october 1981 an event that turned in to a very tense situation... you can find it all on my blog.

I hope you all will have a greate weekend !

best regards Michael

Looks great Michael...

can you tell me what the hull is made of? is it layers of foamcore?

[Dalauppror]

Thanks !

Yes it just one piece of foamcore that was 25mm thich that I cut in shape with the hobby knife and some sandpaper to even it out. Pinted  it with PVA glue several times so the foam would not melt when I spraypainted it.

I added a bit of foamcore as a base to build the tower around, the rest of the tower ar just the sturdy back of a note book.

Most excellent. Love the sub.
I love how you play events and battles from your part of the world.
Very entertaining and I learn a lot of interesting history.
