I just finished two submarines from Hobby Boss to accompany my HMS Gotland.
Yes all of them are in 1/350 scale.

I liked them very much.
What kind of paints did you use?
How did you make the wear in the painting?
Congratulations for the result!

Oooo, they're nicely done!

Will your fleet be expanding further?

I have had a slow modelling year but I managed to finish some submarines:

Image
Image
The 1/350 scale Airfix Trafalgar class in the experimental camouflage tried on HMS Trenchant.

Image
Image
Then I learned that I could build a HMS Swiftsure by shortening the Trafalgar and adding a second went to the hull sides

Image
So two Royal Navy subs added to the collection.

Image
Image
Next was a 1/350 scale Type 039G submarine. 'Song-class' from Bronco

Image
It was built straight out of the box.

Image
Image
Finally I built the Type 214 class submarine. A 1/350 scale kit from Wolfpack. I finished it straight out of the box as Son Won-iL from the Republic of Korea.

I use Tamiya acrylics when painting. Sometimes I use a wash of Humbrol enamel to get some variations in the paint or if the airbrush works fine I try to use it to break up the monotone paint job.

Trafalgar weathering is actually superb!
