A little late for the 4th, but enjoy. I think it's about 1/76.

The Turtle has fascinated me since I was a kid. I like your build of it. Is this the model with an interior?

Thanks!

Nice build of an intriguing subject Lep. Is this your entry in the Micromodels contest?

Elliot- No, she looks that way because she wasn't really round, but a pointed ellipse(<>).

B-Maniac- Hadn't thought of it, but sure, where do I post? Here? The bottom looks off because it's a free-hanging anchor/ballast/emergency surface device.

Hi Lep,

Great job on your Turtle. I am always impressed by the various means that man has attempted to be one with the sea, this early one is no less impressive even though it was pretty unsucessful at its' offensive objective. Just that it actually worked as advertised was enough of a sucess.

B-Maniac- Done!
