Fantastisch :D

I don't always comment on your prolific output (probably because I can't keep up with you :lol: ) but again, top marks for bringing so many interesting designs onto the Forum; and I now must google this subject.

There is something about the shape that looks like a Soviet era SSN with two fins.A very interesting and futuristic design.Nice drawing too.

Thank-you guys!!! I'm reallt glad you like it! I've some copies of Science books at the 30s and begin 40s I'll use to draw some more ones! I want to make various what-if companies whish could use this ship, like I'll do the Dutch Holland-Amerika Lijn, Norddeutsche Lloyd, and some more. Ideas are welcome!
