Filled all the rail, and isolator holes with miliput. Lights are gone, and the recesses were made deeper, and wider.

Lights.
I know the front boats had the lights painted over, or the bulbs removed.
Glass is made from the cigaret lighters.
The rest is scratchbuilt from brass sheet, and styrene:





Not glued in yet. Glass will be painted silver, and fixed in after the CT is painted.

Mr. Surfacer applied.
I sanded the whole thing starting from grit 800, tthrough 1200, and finished on 1500.




Rivets will have to be replicated from revell, because i dont know any better.
Can someone confirm if the pattern used by revell is correct please?
It doesnt show clearly on any of the fotos of U-552 i got my hands on.
