Strange I thought it would be bigger what with all those people inside it.

@OP These fine gentlemen might want a word with you:
Sokonomi
I didnt even know this was a thing. I wonder if they do this with ships too.
mistral186
neat.

Look at that boot-y!

What is this - a Type VII I-boat for ants???!!
WoTLert
Beautiful boat, beautiful model.
AlabamaNerd

DingleberryJam
U-boat for ants!
RatoMolhado

What is this, a submarine for ants?
confirmsthings
When the drawdistance in Silent Hunter is too close.
Mcnk
The water is amazing
ShaunBT
Nintendo really outdid themselves
everywarwaged
We all live in a tiny submarine, a tiny submarine, a tiny submarine...
blooregardqkazoo
Good work! From the thumbnail I thought it was a real boat.
Absurdulus
me too ^^
charhan
Technically it’s a catamaran.
dasarsch
Very nice! Type VII ftw!

Makes me want to play Silent Hunter 3.

What is this? A U-boat for ants? It needs to be at least three times as big!

I'm working on a 4 foot akula class rc sub. It's much bigger.
iMaker
What company makes those scale of models?
Korbendallas71
Hiya it's hobbyboss 1/700
CuntPuncher1000
There are two types of boats in the water. Submarines and targets. Nice job!

Subs can also make nice targets...

Immediately had the "Das Boot" musical score in my head when I saw this.

I know that song well... ♪Das Lo-ove Boot, shiny and new"

What is the purpose of the top rigging that runs the length of the sub?

Best guess: https://www.militaryfactory.com/ships/imgs/ammiraglio-cagni-submarine.jpg Flags?
stormegedendarklordofall
I believe it's to cut anti-sub nets, but tagging the @OP couldn't hurt.
Korbendallas71
Yeah Think it's a anti sub net cutter .
asmallcat
Also interested in this. Quick google search doesn't give a good answer.
Korbendallas71
Yeah it's the cable leading off the serrated edge of the net cutting thing at the bow
Aeroengineering
Dont know for sure, but I think it may be an antenna
Bureaucromancer
Almost certainly an antenna
stormegedendarklordofall
Picture not great, but it is a net cutter: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Net_cutter_(submarine)

Thanks for the info!
ice12d
That's really well done! Any chance for a step by step post? I'd love to see your method of making the water look so realistic!
stormegedendarklordofall
@OP does not have any comments, I guess we won't know for a while.
MadMupp
Same here, its so good I'd just make water with no boats in it
elninjapenguin
Same Same.
Korbendallas71
It's a great technique with practice and really cheap too. The only thing extra I've done is add the cotton wool whisps to replicate foam

imnotthatblonde
also YES, though more for warhammer/d&d scenery this stuff looks amazing
ImAShittyTransAm
Yeah, I've got a few 1/700 ships in my backlog, I'd love to have one water diorama.
Dumbladorable
"aww shoot, now i have to make it again" - OP maybe
Korbendallas71
Hey man thanks for your nice comments and stuff. The method I use is one I found on YouTube from a railway modeller. https://youtu.be/2TwpB
SkepticSquid
My dnd scenery would look so much better with water that badass.

@OP you gonna deliver?
Korbendallas71
Hey how's it going, the link for the technique I used is in the feed comments bud. Give it a look. Doesn't take much to get good results.
stormegedendarklordofall
Thanks! :)
Korbendallas71
No prob. Look at sea images for realistic wave shapes. Cheap method PVA and loo roll. Id a mate did flooded dungeon tiles for heroquest.
Korbendallas71
At least it's cheap you can afford mess ups. And it's pretty forgiving.
