bsalmon Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Pretty good kit but the surface is very rough and needed lots of priming and sanding to smooth it out. The screws were also sanded to a more curved shape. The torpedoes are painted in Alclad Steel which looks like different colours depending on the angle of the light. This model represents Seehund U-5330 that was launched from Ijmuiden in the Netherlands and sunk British cable layer Alert (941 tons) on 24 Feb 1945 northeast of South Falls, Ramsgate. (Southernmost part of the Outer Banks fronting the Thames Estuary). 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
