U boat model

brett25 · 02-26-10, 01:42 PM

hi I finished my u boat model which includes interior details. Its a combination of two model kits into one. I used a dremel to cut away the hull to reveal the compartments. Fun to have on the desk when on patrol

Very nice! Was this made from Revell's 1/144 VIID and the earlier U-47 cutaway model?

HI captainnemo. It was made from Targa's 1/144 (http://www.bcmini.com/id92.html) and a 1/144 revel kit

Nice work! Now I want to start building again.

It's kind of hard to imagine sometimes living and working in such cramped quarters for weeks on end. Your model gives a pretty good idea of how little space there is in a Uboat.
