                        Whoa, that's nice. The paper-over-framing gives it a very low-tech manufactured steel look. Sweet.

                         

                        The stuff on the rear shelves is almost as interesting. Cool [8D]

                        Super cool!

                        I'm guessing she's about a yard/meter long?

                        I'd love to see more photos if it's not too much trouble?

                        Nineteenth century science fiction has transportation as it's main vehicle while in the Twentieth century it has moved to space travel. Jules Verne's story revolved around a hot topics in the late nineteenth century: functioning practical submarines, and economic development of the oceans. The deep ocean was that era's version of outer space. Sea monsters rather than aliens, etc.

                        Chasing the ultimate build.

                        A very creative build. Kudos to you sir.

                        The framing you used reminds me how the WW2 British Wellington bombers were constructed. Any particular reason why the fins in the rear were made different than from what the movie shows- creative licensing I suppose.
