German U-boats

1/350 DKM U-505 was Captured

Nothing was done in four weeks. It's too hot to work. I made a small diorama that I could easily make for practice before starting my next project. I was impressed by the picture of the captured u-505. I made it into a small diorama now, [...]

Revell 1/144 U-216: Type VIID U-Boat

This is an "olde but goodie" model I built some time ago, maybe over 10 years ago. Once in a while I go into the basement and look at my old, dusty built models put away in storage. These models in storage are much older then [...]

U-boat VII/C

U-boat Type VII/C : The magic of light 1/144 U-boat VII/C (Revell) & 1/350 U-boat VII/C (Revell)

Battle of Kasserine Pass Group Build: U-81 Revell 1/350th (The U-Boat That Sank my Great Uncle Artie)

Operation Torch, and the arrival of British and US troops on the French North-African coast in November 1942, was the invasion that established the basis for the Tunisian campaign; the defeat of Rommel; and ultimately the opening of a [...]

1/350 U-boat VII/C “The beginning of the End.”

"The beginning of the End." Hitler's U-boats, who drove Winston Churchill into the corner, as the allied forces acquired Ennigma, embark on a journey of long defeat. It meant Hitler's end. I refer to the underwater explosion of [...]

1/350 DKM U-boat VII B & Arado Ar 196

I made a diorama for a short rest before performing a top-secret mission. Through Google Earth, we've referred to a lot of pictures of the Norvik coast. However, I feel bad because it is totally different. The color and transparency of [...]

Revell Deutsche U-boot Type VII C/41 (1:144 Scale)

I bought this kit a while back and it's been my stash for some time. Though I mainly build WW2 aircrafts, a little change is sometimes nice. The model is of U318, which served with the 4th (training) 11th, 13th and 14th U-boat flotilla in [...]

Revell 1/72 Type VII U Boat

Hello everyone, Here is my first completion for 2016. It was built as a commission for a friend at work. You may recall a previous build I posted of another submarine I built, also for said same friend. A couple of pictures show the two of [...]

THREE GERMAN SUBS in 1:350

Having finished four german capital ships of WW2, it was time to complement my german collection with some subs. I chose to build one from each important class. The Typ VIIc U-Boot was the workhorse of the german navy and bore the brunt of [...]

More Pictures of the Revell 1/48 Type IXc.

My love for U-Boats started back in the early 70's when I first read Herbert Werner's "Iron Coffins". I bought Revell's Type IX U-Boat as soon as it was out. The build was pretty much straight forward. The size of the hull (42 [...]
