U-boot Typ VII D

A little bit of relaxation from armor :)
Excellent revell model, in 1/144 scale. It is painted with revell enamels, and weathered with AK interactive effects and W&N oils.
Hardest thing was making of jumping wire. I used elastomer from nylon stockings, and I'm satisfied with result.
Model represent U-218, only U-boat from VII D class that survived war, and surrendered in Bergen on 12. may 1945.
The last merchan ship in the war was sunk by the mine, which U-218 layed.
Comments and critics are welcome.
