As far as sinking a C3, well that was exaggeration. Firstly, you'd use all the torpedoes necessary to bring down a C3. But for that lone, 1800 ton, unescorted merchant vessel so far from home...I think a 57mm might do! If you haven't noticed I have a fetish for submarines with cannons. Something about not being defenseless on the surface...
Now, sir, your models are quite impressive. However, I have extremely little experience modifying SHIII, but fortunately (I guess) if someone were to begin on a Zulu class, the Type XXI is a natural starting place. They seem quite similar. I've even found a cutaway drawing of the boat and some interior shots from a surviving ship, if you're into modeling interiors.
Don't you just love the bridge of the Zulu?

Funny you should mention interiors...
I have not modeled an interior in a long time (Since I was making stuff for Virtual Sailor like 5 years ago.) But I have a full interior of the Zulu sitting around untextured! But its a .GMAX file and for some reason my computer will not run GMAX anymore.
Whenever I see the bridge of the Zulu I cringe at the though of that extra drag.
It vaguely reminds me of the bridge of 1930's submarines.
