thanks for taking one for the team!

...and to that end, I've posted just one on ABMS tonight - what I've done with the upper pressure hull, paint-wise.

on youtube there are a few videos of the 1/72 sub. I recall it being in Japanese, but it might be worth checking out. I just searched revell models just to see if anything was out there......maybe some video of someone sanding a seam!
