1:32 PROTEUS from Fantastic Voyage.

[MARK M3]

Here is my personal 1:32 Moebius Fantastic Voyage Proteus submarine build. I built this some time ago but wanted to do a proper photo shoot of the model.
I have TWO MORE I will be building as I get caught up on current builds.
Here's what I did...
The model was air brushed Tamiya White and clear coated several times with Tamiya clear semi Gloss, wet sanded in between.
Interior air brushed to match interior of full sized prop.
Crew Figures.
Photo Etch enhancements throughout.
My OWN light set up...correct number of lights around upper bubble,Interior cabin and Lab area.
Rear cabin windows opened to view inside.
Opening upper hatch.
Scratch interior bulkheads on either side of cabin.
Scratch built several lamps(see in the film)throughout the cabin.
Fabricated "maps" rolled in place in map area.
I also added the round grommets seen on the full size studio prop(They are not on the filming miniature), and since this model more or less represents the full scale prop, I added them.
Thanks!

Lovely---a good display would have that, the T-tail Proteus and a new build thing here

And a temporary base...

An O/T question:

We saw a wheeled handling cart in the movie.

Likely a prop all it's own---but I could see something like that used to move warhead bits around....and wonder if they got ahold of one...

Love the display for sure
