I imagine you were a handfull! Bless your mother
Sub is looking good. Did you figure out a paint scheme? Saw a lot of black and white pics

She was. I was. . .but in a good way.

Going with either MS 9 or MS 10. Those are the ones that seem to cover most of this class, according to the site Carlos provided (Thanks, Stik.). MS9 is all surfaces above the waterline black. With MS10, they are gray. I mixed up my own red for the hull - some Tamiya Flat Red XF-7 and a bit ofTamiya XF-64 Flat Hull Red Brown. Got that sprayed on today.

This looks like a fun quick project!

Good flick. I hope is goes well.

Shapeways is evil....

I decided I did not like the MS-9 (Black) scheme, so I went with the MS-10 (Gray). I like that more bettererer.

Here is the house blend hull red



Masked off and painted the Dark Sea Gray (Tamiya XF-54)

Looks good Lyle! Coming right along.

Thanks.

Very nice!

Thanks, Mike.

The Hull Red, or more accurately Anti Fouling Red looks just right! Looking very nice so far!
