With a Sottish accent, no doubt. First name has to be Yuri

Most Russian submarines did not have planes on the sail. They were equipped with retractable bow planes (like most of our boats now, post 2nd flight Los Angeles class boats).
I like the reshape of the sail, very much like the old Russian 'November' class boats.
Nice job!

Thank you, kind sirs.
JK: Have always been fan of the Akula design which prompted this mashup. There are certain elements of the Seaview that I felt needed to be there and the sail dive planes were one.
The stern "Caddy" wings (which Irwin Allen insisted be incorporated into the boat design.... because he loved his Caddy) were cut down and lengthened on this model although I really doubt a Russian Seaview would have any of that either.
32: Haven't even thought about the little fellas yet as the sub is still a work in progress.

Finishing the control room details and will then attach the stern to the bow 1/2. The seam will take a while to address as I've dealt with this one once previously.
In the mean time, this the R/C pump-jet that Bob Martin built for me. I futzed with the cosmetics a bit but this 99% Bob.

Wow, this is what I was thinking of when suggesting a more shark like appearance. Very cool!!

For those that asked, I envision the Flying sub looking like this borrowed concept.
It fits in the bay and is far more sinister and dangerous looking than the American version. (Always thought the flying sub looked like the chopped bow of the Seaview....)
As to the Seaview, now plan on updating the propulsion system. Am adding LEDs to the engine cowls and mystery engine parts.....
Zzzzzooooommm!
