Mancha's Filatov (last build pics: 12/04/09)

Mancha’s Twenty-Questions

Okay, I’ve found this idea attractive from the get-go, but I didn’t want to start something and never finish it (an all too common habit).  I also shared the common problem of not really knowing what I wanted to do.  I finally decided my first idea was impossible without some cannibalizing of expensive model kits.  And so I’ve turned to this idea:



What is it? you ask.  Exactly!  I thought it would be fun for the learned LAF to guess.  I intend to post a picture every day or two.  These pictures might show very minimal progress.  I will answer three yes or no questions every day, in whatever order they are presented.  You can ask any questions you want, as long as they can be answered with a simple yes or no.  (Of course I cannot guarantee that I'll know the answer, but I'll do my best.)  Sooner or later people will have to post questions as to the actual identity of the build, such as; “Is it a 1914 bicycle dirigible?”  The answer to which (and this is a freebie) is “No”.

I hope to hear from some interested members with questions.

Is it smaller than a breadbox?  What scale loaf?

It looks like a superstructure (the wall) of a ship laid on its side with the coaming? for a door and latch back strip. Maybe a sub?

If your question is, "Is it a sub?", the answer is "No".

That's three questions for the day.  I'll post another pic tomorrow and answer three more.

Good game. Calimero spoiled it  ;) lol

But presumably we now need to guess the exact make and model?  :)
