Flankerman Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 The Mikro-Mir kit is supposed to be HMS M.1 - but as I already had a resin model of M.1, I decided to make HMS M.2 - before she was comverted into an aircraft-carrying sub. The only changes I made were to source the M2 decals from my spares box - white characters on top of black to get the 'shadow' effect. I also left off the deck gun - Internet photos show it not fitted.... The M-Class were nicknamed 'Mutton Boats' - because the 12in gun mounting looked like a leg of mutton. HMS M1 and M2 together...... This is another in the expanding range of 1/350 scale subs from Mikro-Mir I understand that they are planning to make HMS M2 with a hangar and floatplane - plus M3 when she was converted into a minelayer.

parche Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Ken, another beautiful boat. I spent some time in Scotland over the last six months and had hoped to try to get in touch, but my schedule never really worked. One of these days. Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
