Hi eveybody,
buiolding the Trumpeter1 1/48 U-552, I have the possibility and the intention of scratchbuild the whole bow structure, outside and in front of pressure hull; for doing it, I have only the drawings of David Westwood's book ( Anatomy of the ship ), that I post.
Unfortunately, from those drawing, I'm not able to reconstruct the the complex structure of bow external casing: is there someone who had tried, in past, to do that ? Are available some 3D or axonometric drawings ?
I'd like very much to scratchbuild this part of U-Boat, and the 1/48 scale allows a good precision, but I need help from U-Boat's experts....
I post my ( also incomplete ) work in bow section, confined for the moment at the pressure hull.
I hope someone can help me.
Thanks in advance.
Filippo
