      I was going to follow this project, but then I realized there wasn't much chance of it having wheels
      (I have standards. Pretty low standards, but hey)

        Could!...

        Is this a design as you go or is there some reference submarine? Are you doing this with SubD or other plugins?

          No plug-ins so far although I always end up using Round Corners are many of my projects.

          No references, just for fun. I haven't done a complex model in months.

            Oops. Forgot the first steps.

            Make shape.

            Scale the new face slightly smaller and then continue for each section. Complete one half and then make Component. Duplicate and then reverse scale -1 the duplicate. Then mate to original.

                Some submarines DO have wheels, mainly Russian and Swedish midget spy types for lying up in shallow waters.
