U-Boot Crew

[ErGide72]

First post here, so here it goes.

I would like to introduce my latest project. As I didn´t want to wait for Teasung to create a 1:35 u-boat crew after his superb 1:16 u-boat commander, I dicided to do my own (No bad feelings, Teasung, you are one of the best!!!) The figures are a mix of Dragon and Tamiya parts with some magic-sculp here and there and of course the superb Hornet heads.
The 'wintergarten' base is entirly made out of scratch, not easy as the one Type VIIC is not the other.... This goes also for the 20mm Flak Sockellaffette, as this was a project on ist own and info on this is realy scarce!
Painted entirely in acrylics and oils weathering on the wintergarten.
