Looking good, it's a pretty large one in this scale... certainly compared to WWII subs...

Yes. It measures a little under 50 cm length wise. This model fits inside my cabinet. 🙂
I think the most imporant goal here is to make the seams and the shape of the hull as flush as possible to get that solid look when finishing painting.
It might be an idea to detail the hull, but I honestly haven't thought that far. Not sure how I can even add tiling to the hull surface.
What I can do, is making the hull skin look stressed, I think that is something I can do. Edit: On second thought, I guess if this ship has tiles on it, there woudln't be any stressed hull to be seen.

Adding the tiles can be done by simply scribing (luckily these are added in the Hobby Boss kit, but these are very pronounced) On the ship you can distinguish some variations in color ([img1]) , to make the hull looking stressed, take a look here to avoid a lot of scraping, but I don't think it is a necessity:

Ah, yes, painting a patterns seems like a good idea. As long as there is this contrasting effect showing indivisual tile, I think doing that will look good. I am thinking airbrush on black, then maske off and airbrush on some lighter color, then remove masking and carefully airbrushing a thin layer of black again.

thinking more about nato-black, RLM 66, dark grey, rubber black... you know the fifty shades of dark grey.. then you can still do a panel wash with black to make things pop a bit...

Good idea with black wash over nato black, as black wash on a black surface probably isn't very interesting. 🙂

That is going to be a monster. Watching. I got the Kilo all done except for adding the screw. I will try and get some pictures soon.
