All the small projects have been put on hold, and im taking advantage of few days off work to make some progress on the U-552. Read more at: http://u-552.blogspot.com/
I am making 5 of the Revell U-Boats in 1/72nd scale. They are for wargame purposes, so I cut the hulls in half along the waterline. All five of them are different, one even has the mine layer insert that Special Navy makes. Unlike these excellent models, mine are not highly detailed because they have to be handled.

That is excellent work but I wonder ifone detail is correct. I am not familiar with U-Boat patrol routine but American boats took down all hand lines and supports when on patrol due to the drag and noise they made under water. It seems only likely that the Germans would have done the same. Of course, I guess you could say she just put in.
