A truely beautifull build, Its nice to see another type II, they are very attractive and your model shines!

Congratulation on the first place - I havn´t seen the other contestants, but this looks like a worthy winner.

Cheers(or Kippis) /Jan

Hei Pasi

Congratulations on your U-4!
Good presentation, good build, subtle weathering and good corrections makes it a winner (as you so well know).

I have found interesting for a Finn to have resisted the temptation of making the Vesikko
I bet that you have been at Suomenlinna at enjoyed it (I have and I live a "little bit" far away from it)
Could this be a next project?

Once again, Congratulations

That's a gorgeous build! I'm delighted to see another rendition of the Special Hobby kit. The pre-Nazi ensign is a nice touch as well.

Thank you all for nice comments, this was my first model in Model Shipwrights and also first "International web-presentation" Happy to be in crew.


Yes,it was temptating. But there have been rumours that Special Navy is making model of Vesikko as well, so i am waiting for it. There is also new book published recently in Finland about Vesikko, so there is plenty of reference nearby !
Type II is one of my favourite ship types, it really was a nice model to build.

Hei Pasi

It was a good internationalization, then!

Can you give me more info on the reference book of the Vesikko, please (ISBN, publisher, this kind of info)
Thank you in advance,
Rui
