[WIP] USS Triton SS(R)N-586

Sledgehammer427 · 07-30-09, 02:51 AM

I always wanted to do this boat, as a mod for everyone to appreciate her size, and a tribute to her groundbreaking circumnavigation of the globe (...and 'cause I always thought she was kinda pretty

)
insofar, she is ALL (and i mean all) Scratchbuilt, so dont be too harsh on the criticism, it's almost 3 AM, and I've been working on this boat all night.

*edits to the hull since the pictures have been taken,
I made more of a rise in the bulges since the screenies were shot.
The bow has also been sharpened. (I think the correct term is softened, it looks more like it does in my blueprints)

EDIT: Believe me or not, this perticular model started out as a really really long rectangle!
The bulges, the rudder venturi, and the Diveplane brace on the stern were added after the hull was completed
