1/400 S-13 Soviet Submarine (possible large pics warning!)

Sledgehammer427 · 09-02-10, 02:29 AM

I found an old kit I had bought a long time ago, back when my hands were too shaky to build these kits with so much detail, I knew what the sub was in better detail thanks to the Battle of the Baltic mod for SH4. I built the kit in all of an hour and a half, to the finished product you see here. I love the instruction manual. The sprue in the cellophane bag was attached to the manual (made of a very rough paper, cardstock almost.) by thread.
I have another one of these, I left it in Illinois, it's a D-class, but I didn't spend as much time and I ruined all the decals.
Either way, enjoy the pics!

me holding the sub, sorry for the blurriness. Hope you get an idea of the scale.

Very nice, good detail for such a small model!

1/400 is extremely small, and with you being like 6'5" it looks even tinier

just wait till we get to the sub exhibits at the meet, I'm surprisingly under encumbered for my height

PS.
I'm only 6'2"
