Excellent. Looks big and menacing - the way those things are supposed to look.
Can you build others of her class from the kit?

You can indeed David, the kit provides markings for all 7 T-class boats as well as the alternative pump jet propulsor that is fitted to the other 6 boats after Trafalgar.dwomby wrote:Excellent. Looks big and menacing - the way those things are supposed to look.

I'd love to see Airfix produce a Swiftsure class and a Resolution class to fill out some gaps in 1/350th RN subs.

Nice one Tom. I like the look of modern boats, a sort of sinister beauty. Great work
Doing - Tamiya 1/35th Universal Carrier.
Work is the curse of the modelling classes!

Nicely done. Mine dragged her fins for a while and got very dusty waiting for me to finish off the etch round the opening bit they can get out onto on the upper bit (technical 'aint I)
