have you tried the sub committee website ?- maybe someone there will have knowledge of the set ?

Hello maninblack, Welcome to the site, I havn't personally dealt with Dream Arts but have been in contact with some one who has and no probs were encountered, They do make great stuff don't they.

If you don't want to go to Europe have you thought of Accurate Armour in Scotland...they do a resin tower at 1/35 scale which fits perfectly onto the Robbe V11. I have one fitted to my type V11 c and it looks the doggies !

May you always surface the right way up !

cheers Sub.

I am building on a Dream Arts hull at the moment, no problems with the order from their website. You can pay via Paypal. they speak English too if you need to email.

 

[Guest]

Maninblack there are some pictures of subzero's u-boat in my gallery page so you can get the idea of what the Accurate Armour tower looks like.

I didn't get a U boat , I got the freelance Subdog hull, which I an turing into a cross between a speed boat and a submarine :twisted:

You just need to get a suitably sized glass bottle and you could make a very fetching lava lamp!

Hello Mankster...Didn't the Germans have those in WW2 painted black and white ??? He,He.

Yep they sure did; I'm pretty sure the aerodynamic shape translates well in an underwater craft. Mines only getting a Speed 600 motor and 12v to start of with so will be pretty tame. Also I am building mine with a conning tower to make it more sublike to the detriment of performance, but here what something similar built with a brushless motor can do

Great pictures, do you have any more? The U-boat diorama looks superb but I would like to see more of it if possible.

Have you seen this one?:

A source of inspiration if ever I saw one!
