USS Nautilus -- 90 degrees north

[MSea]

I know you are not keen on subs Haddock but have had this in the stash for a while and decided to just get on with it.
Now can you figure out what I am going to do with the 3 figures ??

[MSea]

All 5 parts of the hull fastened together - next a good clean up and some filler.
Don't need to bother cleaning up the bottom of the hull as that will go with the figures - are you confused  ??   HoHoHo

[MSea]

More bits and bobs added to the hull - before any of you say I have not filled in round the ford torpedo tubes - you will not see them when the model is in situation.

[MSea]

A start made on one of the figures - any ideas yet ??

[MSea]

A start made on the second figure - any ideas now -- if you need a hint "you could get a present" ?

20,000 leagues under the sea?

[MSea]

20,000 leagues under the sea?

Excellent idea - but wrong - try again.

[zak]

The Hunt for Red October?
The Kursk disaster?
We dive at five?

[MSea]

All excellent ideas ( The Hunt for Red October is one of my favorite films ) but again wrong  - one last try and I will give you another clue !!!!

[MSea]

Last clue from left to right  - a polar bear, a red and white striped pole, a man in a long red coat with white fur trim and an inanimate child made object that makes your hands cold. 
Now put that together with USS Nautilus - what was she the first to do ?

[MSea]

A base made for Nautilus and a hole hacked into the foam to sit her down - should be about the correct level when the surface has had some filler put on it.

[Haddock]

Sail under the north pole?

[MSea]

Correct Haddock - but this time they have crashed through the ice and are meeting Father Christmas and a snowman -- Before you say it YES I should get out more.

[MSea]

Snowman nearly finished.

[MSea]

Work started on the igloo and also the North Pole sign.
