What HAVE I done !?!
Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, May 10, 2005 3:50 AM

Well I decided to go for the Revell 1/125 U-99 VIIB (none-cutaway) U-Boat

Yep - add me to the long list of sad-sacks who have run out to buy U-Boat models off the back of playing Silent Hunter III Tongue [:P]

Oh-dear.

This kit is going to need some SERIOUS work. Aside from the torpedo doors and rounded pressure hull vents, there is no detail on the hull at all. Nothing !
The smaller detail parts are pretty poor, and covered in sink-marks and lots of flash.

What was going to be small project is going to be a leviathan by the look of things, lots of rescribing and superdetailing required

Ah well - time to stop whining and get back to it

I guess the deck gun and flak gun are the first things that need superdetailing.
Yes, the outer hull is devoid of detail. Not even any weld lines. And the upper deck has sink marks galore! Tongue [:P]
Groovy baby
