Well, I guess I never posted a finished thread for this build. It is Bronco's 1/350 Type IX C U-Boat kit built straight OOB in a 48 hour timespan for a Weekend Madness GB. Although I did go back later and add some more weathering, and some rigging. I did modify it from the kit as I wanted to depict U-505 on her final war patrol in late Spring 1944 before her capture. By that time her deck mounted 105mm gun had been removed, so I left that part off and filled the mounting hole. I also replaced the kit's solid radar screen with one made from fine mesh.
As completed within 48 hours...
weathering added with drybrushing for marine growth on the hull and Tamiya Weathering compact rust & soot
and finally with rigging added....
Thanks for looking
