Hi All

I hope you all had a great summer or winter. I have finish yet again winter in New Zealand. I hope to start my U-boat drawings and research in a few weeks after I sort out my life. Also to let you know that my U-boat drawings and research will be come out in ‘drops and drabs’ for the next three years as I will be starting a Ph.D. in February.

Anyway, I have posted some links to my drawings. These drawings illustrate the level of detail of my 3-D model. They are large and detail, around 300 dpi at A3 size and between 4 and 10 MB in size. Would make a great large poster for someone room. Please let me know what you think of them, thanks.

Hi Snowman,


great work, thanks for sharing the drawings. Just a question: Will you "coat" finally the boat with Alberich tiles?

Will you "coat" finally the boat with Alberich tiles?

I think I will add the Alberich tiles to a separate layer to my model. I would like to accurately model the correct alignment and attachment method of each individual tile over the whole U-boat. I think I have just enough photos and information to accurately do this.

Error: I just noted an error in this image, there are no rivets on the last plate of deck (foreground), it should be wielded, not riveted.

Hi Showmann,


thanks again for sharing, amazing work!


I'am wondering if the metal plates of the wooden deck were coated with Alberich tiles (for example U 1105)?
If the plates were coated all the rivets had to be removed to get a smooth surface so the tiles could stick on the metal. What do you think?


Thanks in advance
