WIP :

I had to make a choice... Between the revell or a in brass home-made seerohr :


The turm is almost finished, the ladders, the 37mm and the stern rudders are build, the lost wave-deflector is replaced by a scratch built one and all the rigging anchors are in place.
I'm not going to over detail all this sub, this will be more funny on the 1/72 and i would like to finish this model ASAP.

Your comments are of course very welcome  :)

Pepper-mint,

Awesome!  I like your brass version as well!  Thanks for the match...forgot it was at 1/144!

Looking forward to you progress!

Cheers!

If you can do that in 1/144 I'm pretty sure you'll do wonders in 1/72! Goof work!

After first painting session :







A sanding work is necessary, the 2 flak zwillinge and the anchor are still on the workbench. Some details are oversized or missing but the main goal is reached. Next step : the pre-shadding, pattern painting, details painting and the display case.

Peppermint, I really, really like the anti vibration rods on the periscope.  Exceptionally well done!

Hi,

the paintings should be dry ;D and the evergreen diameter is ok. The rendering is not that bad for a 1/144...
I would like to paint the wooden part from the deck. What kind of wood was used ?. A kind of Tamiya deck tan coloured wood ?
Maybe you have suggestions...
A brand new deck from the shipyard- and then a white light wash...
And thanks Gents for your comments =)
cheers, TBC
Pepper.
