Hi All,

Just search for volunteer to testbuild 1/400 USS Honolulu. PM me if someone interested

I've started to test-build NOBI's USS Honolulu. The model is printed on 220 g/m2 semi-glossy paper , I hope is not too thick for a small model.The first pictures.

Look good so far, wait for more

The hull has been builded

The construction is finished. It's very small , so altrough it looks simple it's not recemmended for beginners. The model don't have designing problem , the pieces are fitting perfect. But I would like to make some suggestion:
1. It would be nice to have a stand with wood texture
2. The submarine name to be written on gold texture
3. For a model in 1:400 the 3 pieces propeller cone it's kinda difficult to build, maibe from a single piece it would be easyier.

VERY nice!

Great job, Dargos!!

When is this going to be made available, Nobi? Can't wait to try this one, it would look great along side my Seawolf.

Cheers!
Jim

Hey Jim,

Where did you get the Seawolf?

Yowza! Must have. I'll have to upscale it to 1:200 to match my sub fleet, though. NOBI, any possibility you could also do it in 1:200? Great build, Dragos!

Thank you very much Dragos for your build, model look great, I will correct kit as your suggestion.

Kit will available soon for FREE....

Because of lack information of this submarine make me decide to put my sub in 1/400 with limit detail but 1/200 or 1/100 will be cool...maybe i will upscale and add into kit.
