Italeri Schnellboote Type S-100

Hello,

Modellers Alliance are the first site to see the hidden gem of a build to be commenced in the near future.

The base was purchased through work.It will be the first time working with water and there will be nothing better to see the S boote in action with guns blazing going through the sea.

Everything is in place with the first area to be addressed will be the gun tub at the front. A bigger hole will be made and the correct gun mount will be established with 2 crewmen in the tub .Gunner and loader.

The crew will be a combination of the resin figures and corrected Italerie figures to fill areas of the boat.

I'll be following this one closely. I RC converted the MTB before the Schnell was out, but this is in my sights.

My son is going to school for Naval design and engineering next year, so I think I can buy this kit as an educational expense. :D
 
Thanks.

It is an extremely nice kit apart from the huge error on the Front gunners fighting compartment. :pinch:

The best part will be working with the water. Challenging :hmmm

Thanks Guys appreciate your words.

The latest E boat from Italeri did not capture my attention as I think they may have not address the forward 2cm mount.

If the problem is still there then Italeri have let themselves down.

Have you had some involvement with the latest design or, you have one of the latest e boats and it is corrected. :hmmm

Thanks Abdin,

The S Boote will be going through water and to get it right is going to be the big test.

Neat Stuff! Other guys keep beating me to the punch with the ship’s wheel emoji, so I’ll go with the only other naval one, oddly though I don’t dink it is one that best suits me
