Hi Guys

During 1944/45 the seehund mini sub was moved around, using a trailer. I have the Bronco 1/35 scale kit of the sub as well as many vehicles to tow with. I would like to scratch build the trailer and would like to know if there is anyone out there who might have a plan or sketch or decent photo. Please I need help.


Many thanks.

In fact I've just realized you must already know the first picture, as I've found it in a thread you had started on another forum (but I hadn't noticed that at first...)

there's a company called U-models, go to Blast models and look them up, they sell the mini sub trailers...you can use the photos to help your scratch building..or just buy the kit....

Not available from Blast anymore but you can get it from the KMT website.

As far as I can tell, the Seehund trailer is not amongst those released by U-models...

You're right, I confused it with the Biber trailer (nice project for the Italeri kit though).
