Brian's 1/48 Dkm u-Boat Type Viic U-552 Take 2

That fin, sail, coning tower, call it what you will looks truly amazing and even more - realistic. First rate job Mr Brian. :thumb2:
 
Just been having a catch-up Brian. Very much top shelf stuff! Most excellent sir.

The finish on that conning tower has a subtle realism to it Brian. Modeling of the highest standard mate.
Thanks Steve

Got to open up vents on the clear side then lots of masking and paint, fit sections in the main hull and then put it all together educated guess 3-4 weeks
