E-boat/Schnellboot bow gun
« on: June 05, 2018, 10:02:36 am »

Hi, first post,(be gentle). I've built a 1/20 scale E-boat, the only bit missing is the bow gun. Can anyone tell me where I can get detail of the folding framework for the gun tub.

This site has pictures  http://www.prinzeugen.com/Weapons.htm  I collected a lot of references a couple of years ago so I'll see what I kind find and post them tomorrow.
There's an excellent book in the "Shipcraft" range, (Number 6) "German S Boats" by Steve Wiper.   There a pdf copy to download at https://www.facebook.com/groups/1195313783862857/1834763209917908/  on the Rc Boat Plan Facebook page.

I found the file that had the E Boat pictures.  There are a few and mostly of other people's model work but do give the detail you're looking for.  I could start posting here or I can send them to you directly by e-mail.  Send a private message with an e-mail address if you would like that.

Mr R Palmacci   does a whole series of drawings on how to correct or improve the Italeri  1/35th S-100 that could be rescaled:
