I would like to write stories, even do a graphic novel, about "the real ones" of my rubber band powered pool subs and the seaport and undersea colonies they run a route between. Guess it would be an Alternate History kind of thing.Also can imagine doing drawings, paintings, of scenes with them in their environments with their people.My health isn't going to allow that right now. Just finishing the models is enough of a struggle.
But even though a struggle, making progress on the projects brings joy and fulfillment, so I continue.
There is a sci-fi story I play at writing and one novel at a time is quite enough, thank you.
Big one, to be named PRS-2, is about 35 inches, 89cm, long without its 2 propellors. Will have 2 of the same propellor PRS-1 has one of.
PRS-1 is about 25.5 inches, 65cm long, including propellor.
And no, there won't be a 3-propellor PRS-3!
But ...There is intended to be a 3 foot long single-propellor PRS-3.
And ...Plans
(well, mostly; designs are finalized during construction) are made for a 39 inch long, 1meter, mostly-1/72 scale, Jules Verne
Nautilus.
(that being Verne's Nautilus, not the popular one done by some cartoon company in California)Where I sit at this computer desk looking up at them above me on the wall it is easy to imagine PRS-1 and PRS-2 as actual vessels out there underway and doing their thing ...
