Very nice. Thanks for sharing it.

He wrote a great autobiography about his time aboard this ship; worth checking out.

Looks great! I think it would be improved somewhat by adding periscope to the conning tower - surely an easy upgrade, no?

I found my copy of Von Trapps' autobiography; it was called 'To The Last Salute' & detailed his experiences on the paper Uboat you made, for the Austrian Navy during WWI.

A worthwhile read.

I've never really been excited by subs but this one looks kind of neat. I might have to give it a go. What scale is it in?
The scale will be 1:250

I came across mentions of the book when I was doing research on this model! I've been meaning to look around for it, though I highly doubt it'll be that easy to find...

Then again, maybe the library at the academy has it...

Sorry about the late response! My battalion's internet is really unreliable, so I wasn't able to get a good opportunity to upload the stuff until now.

The seas are alive with the sound of pinging!! That looks great =)

I'm a great fan of your work, including the congreve rocket. One New Years I'm gonna dress up as an RHA Rocket Troop gunner, set up your model as a prop and launch off some fireworks! =)
