More work on what looks more and more like the U Boat model of our dreams, remember the last submarine UHU02 gave us was the Proteus!

More texture work,I love submarines and the series Das Boot is one of my favourites so this is something I'm really looking forward too.

UHU02's U Boat build continues to look amazing.There is a lot of things I would like to see UHU02 make,the Nautilus from 20000 Leagues Under the Sea would be great but how about the Argo from Jason and the Argonauts or a Trireme from Troy.There has been talk of the Cygnus from the Blackhole movie!:eek:

Work starts on the Coning Tower
The bulk of the film's $15 million budget was spent on constructing U-boats. Specifications for the original Type VII-C U-boat were found at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry. The plans were taken to the original builder of the subs, who was commissioned to build a full-sized, sea-going replica, their first such assignment since the war ended. A second full-sized model was built for interior filming.
