Type IIB - CAPCON 2011

Here are some pics of the 1:72 Type IIB U-boot that won the "1/72 and larger Submarines" category at the recent CAPCON 2011 show.
My own U-673 was up against this Type IIB... and he got the nod.

Thanks Glenn!
It's certainly very nice, but I would say the tip went to the deck activity. Add some to U 673, and you'll be on top!

Yesssss it is Harvey Low's boat! It was also a feature article in FineScale Modeler, May 2010.
Super-nice guy, and an AWESOME model builder.

That is one awesome build! I'll bet the judges had a very hard time deciding the winner between Mr. Low's build and your's Glenn. Both are exceptional quailty builds.
