Jmarc, That's an incredible amount of details: I dig the work you've done so far, will continue to follow with interest as i have an ongoing parallel project (on standby at the moment) focusing on U 48 in a muuuuch smaller scale . Keep up the excellent work!

good progress

Excellent superdetailing of the tower Jmarc.

I love the gyro pad, top notch work.

Question: were type VIIs ever equipped with FA330s? As far as i know only type IX were for a matter of space and type of combat patrols. Anyway, there's a very nice research thread about the platform here: https://models.rokket.biz/index.php?top ... 0#msg23450 that could interest you.

keep this up!

Cheers,

SG

PS the superdetailing of the conning tower interiors seen on your blog left me speechless.

Glad you like it... Here a pic of the FA-330 that I have done in the past , that will go on it
Enjoy !
