Revell 1/144 scale VIIC

papegojan · 09-07-08, 06:55 AM

Basically I have just bought this model, on the strength of a lot of peoples opinions from this forum. Thanks guys, I nearly bought the 1/125 U-99, but having lookedat the detail in the 1/144 am glad I read the posts on here. Basically I think this kit is great "as is" but was wondering where I might source any "extras" for the kit, like etched parts etc. Also if anyone has any advice re this kit, I'd appreciate it. I will post photos as and when so you can all laugh:rotfl:

Hi Papegojan.

Look here: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=140270

You can get the set of flags, snorting bull insignia, and waterline decals from Rokket:

Thanks Siara. It was your post on the 1/72 VIIC that got me wanting to model a U-boat. Have got extra decals/flags. Found eduard kit for VIID. Is that the right one???

It is- but some of the stuff on it are for D type, and useless to You. rest is ok.
