Hi all,

I am close to completing a Fine Molds "A-Target Type A" Pearl harbor Midget Submarine and I have a question for those who have far more knowledge than me (Believe me there are a great number of those people out there) The instructions tell me that not only should the Sub be painted black but also the props, is this correct.

Hello Villi!


I can tell you that from all of the resources that I have, as well as other models of the like, yes, black it is...Rui is the resident midget sub expert, mate, and you may want to drop him a pm or e-mail in case he misses this thread (but I doubt that he will! )

May I ask you for a portfolio of photos of the project for a MOD feature when you are finished?

Hello Gunny,

Just like Henry Ford they will be painted any colour I want as long as it is a shade of black.

I will certainly provide you with a portfolio of pictures when this one is finished along with photos of the Modern German navy 212 class A and the November Class Soviet Nuclear boat, the later two are just awaiting their bases which I should collect tomorrow.
