Necro thread!!! But the project is not really dead - I just build very very slowly.
What brought this back from the Shelf of Doom was Aerobonus' new minisub crew figures.

I find it surprising that an aftermarket company would see fit to make not one, but several figure sets for German minisubs (there's at least two other sets that feature standing crew). But I am grateful for it, and it has provided impetus to finish this weird torpedo boat. I have a number of other minisubs (Bieber, Hecht, and Seehund), so I may need to get more crew!
But darn it, first Amodel/Mikro Mir found a way to steal my model dreams while I sleep, and now this! I need to go to bed wearing a tinfoil hat!
