Title: Yellow submarine
Post by: Alizobil on March 27, 2010, 14:10:16
I needed to create a small submarine, but something more like a robot because it is to go very deep and no human can go that deep...

Therefore I decided to cut the upper part of my red submarine

let's go...

now it's much better...

once it is assembled together

original one was missing something very important... don't you think so? I have used some items of other boats including pirates ship

you might guess what are those brown items, right?

let's paint now...

what do you think if I add some more arms to this robot?

let's deliver it to the sea for the 1st try!

Alizobil perhaps you would like to do something different with the pictures. I cannot see them, apart from the amazing underwater expedition that is!!! Amazing shipwreck  :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:!!!!

All the early picture links are blank again, so I don't see anything until the spray painting stage, sorry Alizobil.

They made this submarine in yellow (3611) as well as red, so it might have been easier to start with a yellow one. I like your cut-down version though!

I too cannot see your first photos, but from the ones that are showing, your little yellow sub looks excellent, and I just adore your magnificent ship wreck :love:

Sorry all, but I don't know what's going on, but from any computers I tried I could see all pictures... so I don't really know what's going on...

If I don't use the yellow submarine it is because I only have red one ;D Too bad if you can't see those pictures, because you could see that the submarine has been cutted.

Bonjour Alizobil  :wave:

Oh my God ! These are some of the pictures of the amazing Polar Marine Expedition which I consider to be the most audacious and ground breaking diorama of 2010  :love:

I could look at these pictures for ever and a day  ;)

Post by: Alizobil on March 27, 2010, 20:03:26
I think  I found what was wrong... please let me know if it ok now and all of you can see pictures...

Thanks to all of you for your nice coments.

Karim... what should I say after reading you very nice post... I'm so happy if I pleased you especialy because you use to get into victorian subject and not really what I'm trying to do...

This submarine is a small part of the all diorama we have done in France for latest exhibition at Mont Saint Eloi 2010... I will post some more customs and then the all thing. What I tried to do is to make this diorama very educative.

Yes, all the picutres are there for me too!

I really like the conversion, the submarine really needs that third arm too, as only having one grabber arm is very limiting.

Have you invested in any of the new submarines? There's a near-spherical one that would also make an excellent deep-diving robot with your conversion skills.

Thanks again for your Nice coments!

Yes Martin, I bought that one and used it as it is in m'y diorama, but I didn't modified it. I have a kind if rule; I modify sometjing only if I have another one in hands to keep it and also only if it is not new from the box... don't know if you get what i mean...
About that red-yellow submarine to make ut really usable it needed 2 arms to grabb and catch and a 3rd one to provide light! That's a minimum to be realistic i think...

The submarine is great!!! :clap: :clap: :clap:
I really like your paint job, it is fantastic!
I am not having the same problems with your photos that everyone else keeps having...
Atleast I did not on your last thread.
If you changed the photos here they are working now... (for me anyway)
Thanks for all the great pics! :)

Those poor boats. :'(
But anyways, I have a question… ¿Is that ‘sunken’ ship really sunken? I ask because it looks like it’s in a fish tank. With fish swimming around it. (It’s make sense, after all… Except that poor boat…  :'()
