Acerca de este barco
I partially built this boat, set it aside for a few years, the restarted it after the internet was available. That prompted me to do some research which resulted in me back-tracking and making major changes through completion.

(Sorry I did not answer this quickly, must have missed your post.)
The Graupner Wiesel is 1/40 scale so 1/35 scale figures are close, but slightly oversized. By making two horizontal saw-cuts, one a the waist and the other at the knees, the height is reduced to a good size for the model. I have info on the particular 1/35 scale figure kits on my web site at http://lewsmodelboats.org/M-scale-figures.htm and kept the uniforms simple with a dark blue top, white trousers, and a flat cap (except for the gunners and officers).
Everyone who has built this model completely missed the design of the bridge. It was hard to find what it really looked like and I have posted photos on my web site (http://lewsmodelboats.org/Schnellboot.htm) of that as well. If you need more info check there and let me know if I can be of assistance. I have tried to make these pages as the most comprehensive information on the Zobel type 143A boats as possible.
