Kev's Scratchbuilt Stingray World Navy Sub57

Hi Woodsy

Finally took some shots of that Stingray sub that I built because you kindly let me know about that racing car prop.

Cheers,
Kevin

    Was it difficult to do Kev?

    Oddly, not really. I had enough scrap bits to make the conning tower and after that it was virtually done.

      Fab! Is the car turned the other way for the sub?

    Ever fancied doing the Thunderbirds fire engine based on the Schuco amphibious car?

      I have thought about it, but have yet to find a cheap enough one!

      I know what you mean Kev. Same with those Vosper boats.

      Oops, that amphibious car is by HSI, not Schuco Kev. My bad. I've been looking!

    Your scratch-built props are magical, and how you make them seems like "magic" to me! SFZ
