HL-10 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Italeris Bieber mini sub. Straightforward build wit no issues. Painted with Tamiya acrylics and weathered with oil paint filters & washes. The torpedoes are painted as training rounds to give a splash of colour. More Biebers were lost to technical malfunctions than enemy action, and they were only credited with sinking one ship. A Bieber was recovered off the Norfolk coast towards the end of WWII and the pilot was found to be the son of the captain of the Graf Spee. Unfortunately he had died of carbon monoxide poisoning, quite a common occurrence in Biebers. Thanks for looking Angelo 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete in Lincs Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Another very well finished model. I'd heard that they weren't very successful. That is a terrible loss rate though. To me, this one has a bit of a steampunk look. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Callahan Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Really great submarine, i like your paint and weathering work. I want also mention it calls Biber, not Bieber and its could be nice to tell us the scale ( 1/35 ) Thank you so much 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
