Here is the latest photo of the plug, as it is being wrapped to be shipped to me.

I have an up to date thread   http://forum.sub-driver.com/showthread.php?1522-The-British-T-Class-1-72-scale&p=16439#post16439

You can see my progress in this photo  

I am about to pour the 'above waterline port side' of the model. Then I'll remove the superstructure center-board, and pour the starboard side.  There will be four sections to this mold.

Keeping an eye on this thread with some interest. I would love to see an old T-Class Group 3 in 1/72 scale

I remember when I lived in  England, '85-88, there was a guy named Darnell who offered a 1/48th scale T class for R/C use.  It actually was a pretty nice kit, not just a hull and tower, but fairly well detailed.  I had one of his type VIIC's, but sold it when I left Europe.  I read somewhere that the molds were sold to another company doing RC kits when Darnell passed away, but I do know they were out there.
