Needed help with XXI reference pictures

conus00 · 02-01-09, 04:50 PM

I would really appreciate any help from modelers here on the subsim. I am currently building Revell's 1/144 Type XXI and found myself in dead end.
My issue is with hull draining holes: according to Vom Original zum Modell there are small splitters in the middle of the big draining holes numbers #2, #4 and #5

but according to picture of U-2518 the splitters seem to be definitely in holes #2, 3 and 4 and (when I tried to blow up the picture in Photoshop) in hole #1 as well.

Can somebody shed some light on this issue?
Thanks!

BTW if you want to follow my build it is either here:
