Must do something about this. Now I feel obligated to get moving on my Gato-Tambor conversion just to give the boat some more presence here!

Here's an image just so you can see what I'm aiming for:

That's actually the Trout and I'm doing the Tautog but they are similar in appearance.

Also, we'll need a IJN forum as soon as Lindberg releases their 1/72 kits. I've had the I-20 on order for two years now.

Good point!

Hopefully with some stuff coming out, we'll fix this unevenness.

Great pix, love the shots of the crew and that flaky black Measure9 coming off the pre-war gray. Thanks Aurora, and keep us posted on your build!

Partly my fault, I've been letting work and life get in the way of my Silversides. I'll try and redirect my time towards my GATO.

Nice work! I just flipped though your website and I'm taking notes!
