Submarines Galore!

This page shows a number of submarines we have done for various clients. We thought it would be interesting to see where this business takes you sometimes. The images that show many different submarines in one shot gives an idea of the type of chaos we see all the time!

Numerous subs including (clockwise from left) ALVIN, U-Boat, Trieste (for BBC Production), Balao class boat |

This type VII-C U-Boat was created from another model company's kit (32nd Parallel). We just loved how Simon and Sheila Smith tooled this kit so we had to have one of our own! Just because we make models doesn't mean we don't buy from other model makers! It currently sits on one of our display shelves for all to see.

The only thing missing in this image are the clear acrylic covers for each boat. Each plaque is laser engraved with sponsor and boat data.
