Modeller Frank Dargies has taken a break from 1:48 aircraft (some beauties!) to work on a beautiful U 564. While he joins up, here are links to his site, and some pix. Enjoy.

That is one very nice build.  A future project of mine is to build some of the CMK interiors.  Hope mine turns out as nice as Frank's.
