Hi all,
I'm looking for a crew in 1/72 for the Revell S-100 S-Boote or Schnellboote.
Anybody know a good place to get some.
Thanks
Vic

Maybe this can be used ?
I know it's a sub crew - but hey, sailors can't be all that different, can they ??

Vic,
In my opinion if you was to use U-boat figures you'd have to get rid of the beards.
E-boats didn't spend extended periods away from port so, I'd have thought shaving would have been required.
