Bravo-Zulu, Julian!

I would REALLY like to have this build displayed here on MSW as in "On Display" feature (and any others that you may have tucked up your sleeve )....what do you say?

Cheers,

Ahoy Julian,

Very nice "Seehund" ! ...I really like the rough texture you created on the hull.

Did you replace the hatch dome with a clear part or did you gloss coat
the painted part?
I am presently building this kit and debating the options.

Cheers,
Joe

Hi Joe, I painted the hatch with Vallejo Hemp, washed it with thinned Vallejo Dark Wash and then varnished it three times with Humbrol acryllic Gloss varnish. Works for me in this scale.
cheers,
Julian
