Hi everyone

This game SH3 , is a strange thing . Let me explain . I have been inspired .
I have been a kit modeller for ages , hmm, about thirty years , my first model was a figure of 3 musketeers , about 10cm long . But my main building was aircrafts , from
WW2 . But now my dearest friends , I have bought me Otto Kretchmers U-99 from Revell in 1/125 scale ( it is my first sub model ever )

I'm gonna put it in my living room , decoration you know

My wife axepted it

That is thanks to the wondeful game SH3 . I quit building for almost a year now , and I never gonna be to old for this . So now I playing SH3 , and take a hour breake , to build this wonderful sub , and go back to my pc and play again . Guess one thing guys . DO I HAVE A GOOD TIME OR NOT

At a little under two feet long it is an ideal size to have on your workstation.
