WW2 Sub project finished...now what was I doing again?

[CompanyB]

Just posted pictures of the U-boat to the greens pages on our site.  It's basically consumed my life for the past month or so.  It's 1/56 scale..and the figures on the hull are 28mm German Mountain Troops from Brigade Games. The u-boat is meant to be more of a terrain piece than a scale model...in that it's a little simplified, can come apart in 4 pieces, and should probably be used as the game table.  But, if you want to have it hunt and sink your steam tramper, be my guest!

Oh, yeah, the U-boat is about 36 inches long...



Now that it is out of the way and casting, I can get back to proper models, like the Schwimwagen, Back of Beyond armored cars and additional train cars.

Sub will be exclusive from Brigade Games.  Look for details soon!  A nice assortment of flak and deck guns have been made for it as well.
