Those water effects are ridiculously awesome. The figures are equally amazing. I dont think I've ever seen figures done that well in braille scale before. Truly inspiring work.

Really nice build. Had to stop and remind myself its 1/72 scale. Great detail.

This needs to be submitted to Model Shipwrite for a feature.

I am compiling information to realise that UBoot, concretely " U-552" of Erich Topp. A good SBS is here:

Hi Izzet. The water effect is truly stunning! I've been wanting to do a diorama similar to this with the Revell 1:72 kit, except have it not fully surfaced. Could you email me explicit details on how you modeled the water, what colors you used, every little detail if you please? Also, where did you get the figures and what colors were used on them as well? Thank you for your time.

My email is [email protected]

Absolutely first rate! You've done an excellent job of conveying movement and drama. Few modelers rarely attempt to show the full interaction of the sea as you have. Congrats!

Wow!!! The water is amazing! As is the weathering on the U-boat as well. Fantastic job! Can't wait to see more builds

As I scroll though these photos, the openning music score from the series "victory at Sea" comes to mind. Great work
