Bruce Simard (aka Frigate) presents us with his "little" HMS Ursula, Mirage''s 1:400 British Submarine.
This is Bruce''s "Dive! Dive! Dive! 2" Campaign entry and it''s a great built of a small model



A good change of pace from the usual U-boot

Enjoy

I love it Bruce! I noticed that bow seemed to be of a different plastic than the hull, was this an after market product or did you pull this from something else? Very nice end product.

As a new member of the U boats side my compliments Bruce for this master piece of work. Its absolute a brilliant model and when you should be in a class I'll personally you must be the number 1
Its a beautifull modell and the wash/drybrush is on a excellent way done.

I wish I could complete my model on this way

regards

Gentlemen,
Thank you for the extremely nice comments about the Ursula. It was a fun build. For whatever reason, whenever I get too wound up in a major project, I just grab a Mirage 1/400th Sub and go to it ! I consider them to be the best model value out there today.
Try 'em, you'll love them !!!!!
