Hello folks, I just wanted to share my first U-Boat build. AFV Club's 1/350 VIIc. This was a wonderful kit and I really like how it turned out. I liked it so much I bought 3 more of their 1/350 kits. VIIc/41, Gato late and IJN I-19. The one thing I'd like to add to this kit is the antenna cables, but I'm not sure of the best way the go about doing it. Any suggestions?

Tim,
GREAT job on that u boat!
As far as antenna cables, I really like to use invisible thread,
in this scale....comes in translucent white or black...paints
well with a marker or fine brush and glues down with CA. There
are other products you can use but this thread is my favorite.
Insulators are drabs of white PVA glue.
Cheers,
Joe
