Unterseeboot Type VIIC

After a period of only making Japanese Sports Cars I finally made the Type 7 U-Boat after all this time, I decided to make it extra special by trying some advanced decal making! The result isn't fully perfect, but it adds a lot to the visuals! I love the Greyhound movie, even despite a historical hiccup here and there, and I'm happy to honor it with this build!

Can we get this past the old Type IX? It's high time that old build got surpassed! If not though, I'll probably make a new updated type IX (I'll make one either way anyway).
