1/700 USS Greeneville SSN-772 (HobbyBoss)

Occasionally I like to build something quick and easy while doing a larger project.  I picked up this kit for only $6.00 from Squadron.  This is one of many submarine kits that Hobby Boss has released in this scale.  I couldn't leave well enough alone so I improved the mount for the Advanced Seal Delivery System (ASDS).  I also made new periscopes and antenna from brass tubing and rod which was pressed to make them more oval and then soldered.  Painting was done with WEM anti fouling red, Lifecolors paints, and Alclad II for the screw.  I completed it in less than 10 hours and thought i think it built up into a very nice little model.  Back to the larger project!
