This has been asked a lot, and there is still no real answer. But trust me, enough of us want it that if it had been reasonably easy we would have them by now. Sorry I don't have a better answer. Nautilus, Narwhal and Argonaut were among my favorite parts of SH1 back in the day.

The holy grial of the SH4 game I can't remember anymore how much I have aked for a proper model of those boats. The last one who was going to do it vanished and we never heard anything more from him

Having studied the model a lot, I believe that a good start could be done with a P-Class resized in a powerful 3D editor like 3DSmax or similar and then reworked in the bow and stern areas. For the conning tower the already existing ones are good enough, it's the hull what needs to be made new :hmm: Sadly I lack the skills and the software to do the task myself, otherwise I would have happily started already.
