Interesting, affordable 36 inch long Disney NAUTILUS!

That was my first thought....That would work but doing all those RIVITS! OH MAN!...plus I want to build more than three kits this year

I'm thinking just build it and light it up using those clear DOLL and CRITTER eyes you see in craft shops for the windows, frost them from the inside and use super bright LED's and whalah! you have a cool looking Nautilus for the shelf or mantel.

I would imagine that you could trace the parts out onto styrene, and build a pretty nice version for yourself.
