In this library, a collection of articles, written by Dougie Marindale, an excellent modeller, you can read various articles about the theme. Go to: AMP - Accurate Model Parts > DOCUMENTS > SUBMARINES > U-BOATS > The Wolf Pack: A Collection Of U-Boat Modelling Articles. Concretely, in Type VII U-Boat Modifications article.


Some of them, previous permission, are translated at Spanish and offered/exposed in U-Historia webpage, the page that I'm collaborate from many years as you must known.

A realy nice model.
Thanks for showing.

I just finnish building the main body myself.
Starting whit the rails now.
And I just cant wait to start painting it.
Its a fantastic kit.
Did you use the plastic parts for the wire conections from the set.
Mine looks so crude.

Best regards

I totalñy agree with you, the wire conectins are very crude so I cut them off, made a small hole with a war meadle and conectedem with good detailed wire, was not eassy but at the end I think it looks a lot better that the crude plastic part.

Mnd you just make a small holw with the neadle so the wire and gluue has a gripping point, dotn try to get the whlole needle through or you will destroy the part and burn your fingers!!!
