Re: Le Boom! *BOOM BOOM*
Turned out superbly considering the problems you mentioned. I've just received the 1/350th Dragon USS Florida (Ohio Class), and she is one long lady!.
Hoping to return to modelling sometime this year!!

Wherever there's danger, wherever there's trouble, wherever there's important work to be done....I'll be somewhere else building a model!

TBH mate I shouldn't have expected too much. The kit dates from 1971 and the moulds are clearly not at their best.Kitaholic wrote:Nice work on that, funny how something as simple looking as a sub never turns out to be that way. Well tackled and finished

Yes, it has tops for at least two of the silos that have five or six shapes each so clearly converted for cruise missiles. All of the silos appear to be visible although I haven't looked to see if all can be posed open yet. The silos are on one hull part and there is a covering that goes on top of that, that has openings for all the tubes so maybe!. She is designated SSGN rather than SSBN and has two small floodable pods on the back for special forces use.Dazzled wrote:Nice.
