## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you build this kit without interior**
A: One hull-half is moulded 'open', so it is not really possible to build the model minus its interior. If you are looking for a Uboat that is full-hull, possibly try our Type VII C/41 'Atlantic Version', 05100.

**Q: How do I go about getting the right coloured paints for this kit ? Does anyone make an assortment of paints that would be suitable ?**
A: Hi yes. Reveal make their own paints Reveal Aquacolour. The colours are stipulated on the model box. Available form all good suppliers. £1.50 - £200 per square pot.

A good model, I enjoyed making it.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ revell xx1
*by J***S on 30 August 2013*

I paid £12 for this model and to be honest it is the type of model you would pay 30-40 pounds for. The model is very big, highly detailed and very striking when finished.There is no flash at all. The manual is highly complex over 55 steps. The model is very complicated to make due largely to the fact that you have to paint, transfer the transfers and detail before assembly which is unusual for a build.You build the interiors first before you insert into the hull and then i would recommend doing a dry fit before final assembly.If you are into modelling, this is great build with experience. If you are starting out or have not alot of experience, then i recommend you stay away from this model.This model is undervalued in my opinion and should be more expensive.The subject is the William bauer, excuse my spelling, which was built by the Nazis at the end of world war 2 and was the most advance submarine in the world at the time having a maximum speed of 17 knots under water and could styed submerged for long periods of time unlike it predecessors. It was basically the marine version of the me-162, if it was unleashed in time it could have won the war for the Nazis as it could avoid depth charges easily. The Nazis scuttled it and was raised and restored 12 years later.So an interesting subject matter as well.Very cheap price for a great kit and is an eye stopper.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good kit but taxing!
*by R***N on 8 April 2024*

Nice kit, very detailed hence rather taxing for an old man! But I enjoyed building it very much and I know my 12 year old grandson will love it (he's into all things nautical at the moment). Look on youtube for building tips and weathering. Highly recommended if you have the patiience!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent subject and good display model.
*by B***S on 2 June 2019*

Still in box hence four stars. Arrived in good time and well packed. Looks to be well molded, and a good price. Due to German law there are no Nazi markings but submerged it doesn't need a flag.
