Just starting out in this hobby.
I've done some past modelmaking, mainly cars and a couple of boats. The boats I built from Vic Smeed plans, so I have some experience of building models from scratch.
Most of the submarine kits I've seen available look expensive, and plans for scratchbuilding model submarines appear to be very difficult to find.
I've seen one plan, HMS Unseen, which is a basic looking model built from sheet wood. Commercial models seem to be constructed from plastics and use cylinders. This seems to make sense to me in regard to dealing with water pressure and waterproofing, or am I on the wrong track?
Can anyone here recommend a good plan aimed at beginners?
Thanks,
James
