1/144 U-Boat crew???

ajrimmer42 · 12-26-09, 04:03 PM

Merry Christmas guys!
Just been out and got myself a Revell 1/144 Type VIID Minenleger kit, somehow my first U-Boat kit depite being a seasoned modeller. I'm hoping to make a diorama out of it as I've been wanting to experiment with modelling water for a while, and so was looking for some crew. I've googled around but can't seem to find any so I was wondering if anyone knows where I'd be able to get some??? Rather annoyingly (and somewhat strangely) Eduard Models only do 1/700 and 1/350 Kriegsmarine figures...

Cheers!

I think ,you can use rail road figures.

This maker has 1:144 and 1:160 scale figure.
You can buy painted and unpainted.

Cheers buddy, I'll take a look.

Amazingly my little water experiment actually worked and looks rather awesome, so pics will up a soon as it's finished!
