Hey there cool another Disney nautilus being born into the world,the fun part begins when you start riveting it,what a blast,even more so as you are doing a little one,14"long. Hmm, what made you pick that size?..btw the model mag you speak of was the one where Tom Scherman(most famous Nautilus maker) posted the drawings first time for public eye 1974...models started popping up at that point...i built several Nautilus replicas using the plans my self, till i did more research on the ship and found all kinds of changes were made to the original filming model that were never changed on the drawings.(these were for documentation purposes only and "a starting place at best" quoted from my best friend and Nautilus historian,Richard Allsmiller. No soul alive today knows more about this submarine than he,including myself.....and I'm a guru lol and extremely passionate about the Disney Nautilus and the accuracies of the ship. Your Nautilus looks good..keep it up
by the way for anyone that wants to make a model of the sub use this measurement for overall length 178 ft or 2136 inches long and you can scale quickly...the one for the 50th anniversary is exactly 22 1/4" long which is 1/96th scale..also for a finished,put it on the shelf figurine with lights ,it will be more reasonable than you guys think,but it is being done by Disney,so I cant say price
