Thanks Sabalo.:D

While waiting for paint to cure before oils, the screws were installed.
The screws are Reboesh brass screws, weathered for 1 year in salty water, and vinegar.

Siara thanks a lot! I repeat you must present this U-boat in a model show; it has to be enjoyed in person!!:up:

Thanks Sabalo- check your PM- im sending you my phone number, ring me, and when you going south through London, you are more than welcome to visit me in Streatham, and have look.:up:

I masked the fade line few more times, and applied filters- it gave the nice spread of fading. :yep:

Looks fantastic, as always!

Looking good Siara!:yeah: Can't wait to see it all done:yep:

Im slowly getting my head round painting the figures, and just bought few sets of Vallejo paints- aparently best paints for painting the figures money can buy.
I need to read some tutorials about them.
I dont want my figures to let the overall look of the sub down.
