Did you check the other link?
I can see i have much to learn on buildding submarines
Thank you very much Siara! I will try to do this your way, and report back, but i guess not before next week, since i need to get the drills first

Do you think this method will work with the smaller holes swell? maybe i'll try to drill out them all But than again it would mean lost of covering/masking them on the inside later, i wouldnt want to end up with a see-thru effect.

I need an opinion on this

And yes, i did see conus00's build, i've found it when i was doing my research on XXI type models. Not many people seems to build those, even less are showing their builds on the web.

Thanks again Siara
