Italeri 1/35 S.L.C. Maiale with Crew: Compact WWII human torpedo in scale

The Italeri 1/35 S.L.C. Maiale with Crew offers a compact but detailed subject for scale marine modelling. The kit captures the unique silhouette and crew layout of the human torpedo, making it a solid choice for display cases and small diorama scenes.

Historical context and fidelity

Used in covert operations during World War II, the Maiale is reproduced here with attention to the control surfaces and crew positions. Model detail supports accurate weathering and period markings for historians and modellers alike.

Build tips and finishing ideas

This kit contains small parts and crew figures that benefit from magnification and thin adhesives. Consider subtle oil washes and dry brushing to bring out panel lines and wear for a realistic finish.
