Very impressive!

 

Guess you need a larger car now, or a trailer?

 

 

BTW, there are AM decals available, with load line marks (Plimsoll), numbers, individual badges. Guess you know them, as a German modeller, but for our foreign fellows: Peddinghaus decals for type XXIII. No connection to the seller.

It is indeed large, but the Gato dwarfs it. Sometime in the very near future, I'll be snatching the Type IXC/40. That one's just too cool not to have.

 

As to the work of the OP, it looks really neat, and makes me want to get back to work on my own project.

...some inner parts of my beast to prevent view through the flood holes:

 

Tauchzelle 1 (ballast tank 1)

Not much to see from outside, but I know, it's inside!
