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

Brian,
Lovely work mate. I think the choice of a lighter colour is a good move. It makes the detail pop more and will look even better when the hull is closed up.

Thx Paul I think your right the lighter colour will make things more visible when everything is closed up :)

Started to think about closing it all up and that will be it for this module.

All I can say Chris is I THOUGHT it was secure but what's done is done and just counted 29 figures and built 3 for the front torpedo room.
