Here are a couple shots I got back. More are soon to follow. Note the scratch built pressure hull support which will be visible through the rear grating.

Thanks. Those pics are from Boris Nakropin. I also posted on the site some pics he sent of the work he did on the periscope, as well as a reference shot of a real one. Here are the two pages with all the pics so far. I expect shots of the finished "U-96" very shortly, work which he has completed on consignment for a customer. When I receive them I will post them.

Thanks, --Jason

He used aluminum tubing to extend the periscope.

That's really going to dress up that U-boat nicely!
