Hobby Boss 1/700 SSN-688 USS Los Angelos

This is a small quick build of the Hobby Boss 1/700 Los Angeles SSN sub. The kit itself is nice EXCEPT they have the tail planes completely wrong. They seem to have been taken from a Sturgeon class sub. I reshaped these to something near accurate.
Eventually this is going to be part of an �epoxy� diorama in the arctic. I already tried once with ok results, but didn�t have a way of degassing the epoxy before pouring and have way too many air bubbles to be happy with. Given it�s planned final result, I tried to weather it to realistically be deployed at sea.
Any comments or criticism are welcome as always and thanks for looking.
