Hi OldNoob,

if needed here is the link to "Abteilung X" (Revell of Germany)

http://www.revell.de/service/service-formular/modellbau.html

Important is the right text column, translated from german to english if you (perhaps) need it:

"Thema" = for example: parts broke UBoat VII-C 1/72 scale

"Artikelnr." = product number of the Revell kit (for example "5011")

"Dokumente" = this is an upload link (for example) like photos, or scans if necessary anyway.

"Teil(e)-Nr." = parts number as shown in the kit instruction

As my friend reports (the mentioned guy with the broke IXC parts) the "Abteilung X" is very attentive and helpful.

Good luck and regards
Falo

I think,, with enough Sprue, Plasticard, Superglue, Putty, Needles and Paint i just might be able to make it pass.

Hi OldNoob,


looks good, I suppose you won't need the "Abteilung X" ("Department X")!

Anyway. TY for all the compliments

Experiencing some confusion. Some sources state that the u-352 may have had a snorkel.  But the wreck site doesn't seem to indicate that it did. however most of the external structures are gone.( and apparently a lot of "Trophies" have been striped off her as well  :( ) IF it did indeed have a snorkel then i have the wrong model to complete the u-352.  But considering it was sunk in 1942 it really should not have the snorkel correct?

Hi there,
 
Good work with your model. You are correct. Since U 352 was sunk in May 1942 there is no way it could have had a snorchel.
 
Cheers,
 
Dougie
