You right.
Its a model of U-99 out of the box , painted , vernished , and then sunk in the fish tank for 6 months. The algae is already taking hold of it , and beginning to look aged. The scale is 1-125 , and due to model being not of the highest quality - thats about the best thing i could have done with it.

Wow. In how many fathoms of water was it discovered? Is it recoverable I wonder?

I have a destroyer with two torpedo holes in my tank. I took a screenshot of a porpoise class from SH4 and used it as the back drop.
