Fantastic shots! Much more detailed than what I saw before when collecting for the earlier project.

FYI, I see there is a 1:72 hull kit is on the market for those interested.

The good stuff shows up ALWAYS after the fact. But, not to minimize your excellent research, Chuck -- your good works resulted in a fine kit.

That bow is pretty rough looking. Russian subs are so.........are so............utilitarian.

Mark, Here in Kent would be the place to start for Battle of Britain lots of evidence if you go looking.
I went to the last airshow of the year at Duxford this year very good. A whole hangar dedicated to the Battle of Britain, funnily enough most of the planes were American WW2 fighters ah and of course the B-17 Sally B/ Memphis Belle, very nice. They even had the Bischon which was in the film of the Battle of Britain as an ME109. All flying.

My favorite planes of WW2 were the British Seafire, American Thunderbolt, and Tigercat. Oh but we cant forget the German TA152 and the Dornier Do 335 arrow.Also close to my heart is the British Typhoon with the Sabre engine and the Tempest with the thinner wing.
