Yes there is an AMP kit of the Losos type Russian Piranha in 1/144 at $20 +
But this morning I picked up a "diving submarine' toy from BJ toys (www.bjtoys.co.uk ) at £1.25 in my local pharmacist.
With a little sawing/filing (to create waterline) and addition of hatch doors and detail I will have a decent mini sub in 1/150
Last Christmas I built a harbour for a game with Dropzone city as a backdrop - so a Cold War style game is in the offing.
The top of the sub dethatches - offering a periscope submerged option.
Images of finished model will follow.
Sweet :D I love finds like that ;)
Blodging it to 1/144 (fits better with Pendraken figures) that is 2mm=12"
The mini sub is 116mm in length= 58ft, 16mm in beam = 8ft, and has a waterline height of 20mm = 10ft.
Fits well with the plethora of Mini subs that were or are in service. The length is about the same as WW2 X -class.
Great idea. X-craft, there's a job not to have!
