Hi Ahmad, nice to see you around these waters, mate!

I want to share a link with you of a website dedicated to the perfection building of the VIIC by Revell, that may help you out with your build, my friend!


Click Here!

Good luck with your build!

Tom,

Thanks for the tips. I checked out your gallery, you have some beautiful models - great work.

Lou

Thanks Lou. I finally got my daughter off the computer long enough to download my in progress photos of the Columbus into the gallery. Please don't hesitate to ask if you've got any questions.

I'm getting to the point that I'm just about ready to prime and start painting. The only remaining "building" items left are to scratch build the extra periscope/antenna and the small navigation radar for the top of the sail,and then (after painting) a small clear windscreen for in front of the bridge. Plus I still have to finish the shroud around the propeller. That was a pain in the neck on the Boise and I'm not looking forward to it!

Tom

Hi All,

Just posted some photos of the latest 2 U-Boats I have completed, a Type II and a Post WWII FGR Navy Type XXIII.

I hope to complete 2 more Type XXIII`s before the dead line, but we shall see.

All the Best

I thought this was over? I posted my 1/350 USS Growler and 1/72 revell Type VIIC/41 in the Gallery. That'll probably do it for me on this one.

Mike

Hi Mike

No - not finished yet!!
It's only over in March 25th
Bravo Zulu on your entries btw
The USS Growler is good change of pace and a good addition to the group built (I am not saying that the Type VII isn't, but the Growler is a less seen fish!!!)

Thanks for entering and finishing your entries!!
So and the rest of you guys that still are working on your entries? Any news??
Please keep us posted
and, of course, keep up the good work!
Skipper

i'm almost done with my first entry. Its the Revell Type VII B cut away. Which I think is actually half VII A and B. Not sure though. As soon as its done I'm going to start on the Type II D. I hope it comes out better then the revell one.

Ola' Rui!
Still building, mate, should be ready for primer/paint after this weekend. . .hopefully!

Here some pic of revell 1/144 u boat
Its almost rdy for painting, i have question
how to make wire over sub, to add it before or after painting ?
I have something my friend give me for wires on planes its so thin
what u suggest to use for wires and how to make it.

Man, that looks good. Revell is really setting the bar high for subs. Great work Tripko.

Ahoy Tripko,

I personally like to use fine fishing line....glues well with CA and is very stable.
Does not expand with climate changes.

Also, white glue applied in thin layers, will simulate the insulators on the
these aerials quite well.

Very nice build so far......

Cheers,
Joe

Hi Nemanja

You also could use streched sprue... I do
Looking good so far

Skipper

Ahoy mates,

Here's my entry for this campaign a Revell 1/220 USS Lionfish. An old less detailed kit to be sure but it brought back old memories of building one of these with my young son many years ago. I like the finished product although I still need to get some rigging on.





Cheers, Gary

Nice one Gary.

Hi Gary

It looks good, but I have to ask you and the rest of you guys, to please upload the images in the apropriate/ dedicated gallery!
This will be the best way for me to know how will get a Ribbon for the Campaign, when the tiem is up!

And speaking about it...
Any updates?
Keep up the good work, we are getting a great fleet around here!!!

Skipper

Thanks Skipper,

I just took care of it.

Thanks again,

Gary
