Wowzah!!!!!

Just excuse me a second while I pick my jaw up off the floor.......

Superb choice of subject. If it's as detailed a model as your submarine, then it'll be the greatest paper locomotive ever designed. I MUST have this one.

BTW Submarine order on the way in the next few days.

Best Regards,
Julian (Fozzy The Bear)

Thank you Julian and Billy
Just knew that you've ordered a copy. I've already sent the last shipment on last Thursday. Hope it'll reach to you sooner.

Bigboy is a hard choice for less design experience like me. But I really love such a great machine. I will try to put details as much as I did for U-Boat.
Now I'm trying to read the brake system drawings. It's quite hard to draw them up in 3D.
More progress pic soon.

Best Regards

Hi to all
Finished all front brake links. Very tough work ! Some parts I modified their shape to be buildable by paper. But links machanism is same as original.

This looks like another incredible design. It is definitely going to surpass the U-Boat in level of detail and parts count!!

Nothing else to be said.... Astounding 3D Work. I really hope this translates well into the model.

nothing i can say that hasn't been said already-excellent, extremely detailed and a bit terrifying.
