Hello,

my name is Karel Ton from The Netherlands, and i just registered here on the forum.
Recently, i finished my u-boot project; a Revell kit with almost every accessory available for it.

-Nautilus wooden deck

-Eduard VII/C PE kit

-White Ensign models type VII flood, drain and vent holes PE kit

-Griffon FLAK-guns high detail kit

-Modelbrass type VII PE kit

-Archer transfers type VII rivet decal set



I opened al the floodholes, added ribs inside the hull above the saddletanks, remade the railings from 0.5mm brass wire, scratchbuild the whole exhaust system wich lies beneath the deck, `oil canned` the hull, replaced about 800 rivets wich were sanded away, corrected the `bull nose` and corrected all the faults in this kit (wich are many....)

Wow is right - an incredible job all around! The weathering and shading of the paint is very impressive.

Exceptional weathering. I like the way it is textured and painted to withstand extreme close-up photography.

Show-stopping workmanship too.

Great job.

Thank you so much guys for the kind responses :thumbs_up_1:

Next winter i will start my new project; a 1/72 Flower class corvet (Revell), with lots of PE and other accesoires.
First i have to do some research and buy some documentation.
When the time is there, i will start a new topic on the forum.
