U-96 Type VII-C U-boot

u-boot typ Vii-c u-96 "the smilling fish"

Grauwolf has proved that for you to have a good scale representation of a Type VII-C U-boat you don't need to buy an expensive large scale model. All you need to have is a good source of references, some modeling skills and a good dose of patience to make the old Revell model into a show stopper (remember that this model was first issues by Revell in the late 1960's). All the things that make the big difference between this and other stock u-boat from the Revell box was... scratchbuilt!

That's a beautiful model. Very well done and I love the simple yet very effective setting on the wooden stand. Nice work!
