Hi Bas,
She starting to look very nice!!!
Well the paintjob depends on alot of things.
1)The shipyard where she is build
2)The year you want to represent her
3)The type of U-boat
4) and alot more
But mostly of the type VII`s is the upper light grey(XF-66,tamiya paint) and the lower hull is dark grey(XF-24,tamiya paint).
And when she is all painted I always use some oilpaints for the wheatering and the varnish.The oilpaints is from the brand
''rembrandt'',burnt umber,ivory black etc etc.
And the tape I use is ''masking tape'' and that is also from tamiya.And if I can see it good you have used the yellow grepe tape????.
I hope this helps.
my best regards,
Ron.
