Once I get it photoed the Easy part of name will become apparent.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Coool! Nice to see one of these under way (Ha! See what I did there? Yeah, I know - never mind then)

I can spot Airfix guns and tubes, maybe a Revell wheelhouse?
But - whose is the hull? IIRC it's (at least) half as long again as the Vosper, or any other, so c'mon - tell us more!


...Please? Pretty Please with 20mm on top?? :lol:

The hull looks suspiciously like a Schnellboot hull.
which i think is also Airfix?

The British have raised their security level from "Miffed" to "Peeved". Soon though, security levels may be raised yet again to "Irritated" or even "A Bit Cross". Londoners have not been "A Bit Cross" since the Blitz in 1940 when tea supplies ran out for three weeks

Yeah, I did wonder about that.

Airfix or Revell maybe.

Still, if it works, why not?!

It is the Airfix E boat .  I've moved the wheelhouse back a little to create some space forward and swapped out German Torpedoes for British  . Otherwise it's mostly parts from the Vosper Torpedo boat and a  RAF rescue launch  to give it some teeth .

Rick Lowe

Nice work!

Darnit, another project goes into the 'Wouldn't it be cool' folder...

Apparently according to various sites, the hull is quite inaccurate for an S-Boat, but this isn't an S-Boat, is it.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Das ist richtig , it is a totally spiffing British boat manned by our Jolly Jack Tars what what

Sorry, went into 'Generic, Chinless Upper-Class Twit' Mode and the brain has to be all-but switched off to get the proper effect - hence, not thinking about the different services.  :rolleyes:
