USS Alligator released
been thinkin about this awhile now and finally got a start on my submarine series. first one is the USS Alligator. the United States's first submarine. i decided on the late configuration with the prop instead of the paddels.ill be doing this in 1/72. it will go well with my 1/72 VIIC. any other normal ship scale and it would be just too small.

Re: USS Alligator
its 47 feet long so at 1/72 it will almost be 8 inches.
