Some Navies camouflage the sail area least they should broach.

Of course we are interested in the work you have done. I would have to look through the threads or you can but someone here created detailed U-boat models that were very weathered. They looked great as well and very realistic.

These video's may help you with ideas and painting tips.


This video looks like a U-boat that hasn't seen a lot of action




This video looks more like what you want, a weathered and well used u boat. It has rust streaks and discolorations as well.





I hope this helps.

Maybe I should just create a general thread wiith all my work.
That video is helpfull but my boats will not be that weather ridden.

But I still don't know about the K-414's crest and USS Greenling's mouth.

K-414's crest is the one of the district of moscow:

I found the name of one of Greenlings last commanders, Steve Clark Hall on google and contacted him on facebook.

Greenling had the mouth in 1993. If I get an Ok from Mr. Hall, I will post the pictures here.
