Thanks Filippo, Ill have a look.
Also thank you for the Drawing. Very useful


I use the Trumpeter kit figures modified.
Also some Tamiya 1/48 Maintenance crew although they are a bit small but have accessories.
Please see seme photos below. A lot of detailing and weathering to go yet on the first 2 sections.
Also Shapeways has some great 3D Printed 1/48 U boat crews but a bit expensive.
I'm waiting on some Shapeways Hatches to arrive to add to the Conning Tower.


I have used lots of extra Styrene to make additions as the kit is quite bad and is missing a lot of detail.

Thanks Raymic for sharing photos of your work...
I knew all the things you told me: Shapeway's U-Boat crew 1/48 and Tamiya's figurines...
I did not decide yet which set to buy...
Cheers
