U-997, 1/350, Flagman

u-997-2
One of my latest models. I build it from Flagman kit. They produce three versions of VII type submarines. In my opinion, they are the best in 1/350 scale. Main disadvantage is unifications of main parts. I had to re-shape nose and stern with Tamiya Epoxy Putty.

Artillery, antennas and railings were made from scratch.

I liked camouflage of U-997. After rather long research I have found a photo of her where camouflage is definitely visible. I painted the model by hand with airbrush and added some weathering.
