Well-known member
I have been upgrading the the latest Italeri Schnellboot S-38 in to a S-38B.

The unarmoured type 38 bridge got a partly armoured bridge,the 38 bridge was cut to shape and the armoured bridge was build on top of it ,
This feature was standard on the new S-100 types.

I ordered he Armoured S100 bridge from the Italeri spareparts service.
It is lacking alot of detail, still need to ad rivets ect......
And corrected the diameter of the bow gun pit.

What are you using for rivets?

They are from Archer decal resin rivets

:eek:ldguy A beter option would be the rivets from Micro Mark you get loads more rivets for your money

I think you're better off with the Archer, higher quality IMNSHO...:mpup

Seems we had this discussion before. :hmmm
