Good grief, the Battle of the Boats!
Stunning work, Grimm. 

[Driscoles]

U 51 was destroyed by U - Cachalot in August 1940 in the Biscaya.
Seems like they were not sunk but they vanished somehow and surface in a kind of different world...

Whatever...

... great work Grimm !

The Ubootwaffe must have hit hard times if old Dönitz is sending those poor sods out in 30-year-old petrol-engined death-trap Ocarina boats (complete with original Imperial Navy ensign, too).

Just kidding! Love it. 

[TadPortly]

Stunning work, Grimm. 

Totally agree - some of the best painted figs I've seen.  You're really caught that gruelling time at sea U-boat crew look.

    oh yes Plynkes !! I suspect that some one notice that the U-Boot is a WW1 one and the crew is WW2 but any way my brother tell me that the Germans use ww1 U-boots also in ww2 in the Black Sea .
I don´t know if that is right but why not use these U-Boots for special missons like pick up agents .
So I will use that for interwar pulpy stuff (don´t look at the SMG please  ).

About the Imperial Navy ensign I use them because a flag looks better and I don´t want to show a    swastika flag in the Forum.

Cheers Grimm

I totally got it, Grimm. I was just teasing you. 


Lovely job on both the crew and the sub, by the way. The little flags and cables and such are great touches.

You are the man Grimm
