Ok, this project is too weird not to sit in on. Let's see what you can do with it.

@JD, this happens if the family looks in to the stash. My wife like the fish and as a side project I build a baby groot for my son ==> Baby Groot Figur (Suit) | Project by TWN (1:1)
The time is perfect now, because we get a little bit to normal at work 😉

Next steps are following, most cleaning and sanding. The handwheels in this kit are outrageous, I know it came from the garage, but I have seen in other lines from this kit the handwheels are from better quality. However, I get some in metal from Krick, they fit well. And first test to fix the parts.

The PE-parts are really not easy to install because of the steps and rivets. Mine did not turn out nice.
 14 March 2021, 10:17
Torsten
I'm see, hope I can handle them, THX Erik
 14 March 2021, 10:53
Torsten
Today I have no trembling fingers and so I risk to work with the PE-Parts, a real pain for me, but it works

Okay, I must google this and found it 😄

Anything with rivets is good. I understand the hand issues thorsten. I find it is best to rest both my hands in the table when I work.

Thank you for the tip Ben 🙂

@Ben M and @TWN : I have the same problem, trembling hands. Sometimes, I just *have* to stop doing any work on a kit or a figure because it's just too strong. My doc prescribed some Inderal pills to be taken about 15 minutes before I start. I does sometimes help... If not, the "rest both forearms or hands on the bench" is indeed a good trick.
 14 March 2021, 15:23
Torsten
Okay, Thank You René 🙂

I also wear a brace on my left hand sometimes. It helps stabilize my thumb. It is just one from the drugstore.

THX for all the tips, likes and comments, next parts are done, but they need some rework

In the town where I was born
Lived a man, who sailed to sea
And he told us, of his life, in the land of submarines

Yes, but now the question arises : will your submarine be yellow? (thanks Carlos)😉

Looking good, Torsten! There is much more interior detail to this kit than I realized.
 21 June 2021, 12:02
Torsten
Yes Mike, some nice little details, the kit need work, but at last it will be worth.
And THX for the like 🙂

Interesting idea Jonn, I'll check this and will ask my skills, maybe I can do this. I have ideas for a little dio with lights from ground, maybe a kind of workshop, because I don't like it to close the front and hide all the details. I hold some little shwocases from IKEA with lights and think one will match perfect
