I can't do nothing but applause to your superb work

Sorry again to bother you always for these small details, but there are few historical errors in your Type 51 model

In your model, the stern is identical to Type 31

as you can see here, by drawings, the anchor position should be different (not too sure in reality, seeing the photos).
And last: this class lacked on bow, of protective railings, as you can see in the pics of U-53 in Newport (Type 31 was the last class to adopt them)


The stern ones were different too, because after Type 43, the German Navy adopted some kind of "standard type" which was this:

U-44

I took this intresting image of U-46 too, because it shows a nice camo scheme, infact I wanted to ask you if you'll add camoflage paint schemes too for our u-boats


Hope it could be helpful for you and sorry for taking so much space for these images and for some of them, which are not in good quality
