hey all
I Finished this one last night after a 3 week build period. It's not meant to be a hardcore representation of the Bismarck - I added just the Eduard PE set and the crappy Pontos wooden deck sticker (which is giving me a headache with its really bad adhesion properties). The paint scheme is based on the "Too Hot too handle" camo pattern from WOWSL. The rigging is not accurate either. The PE work is less than stella and there are a multitude of other issues that would prohibit it from being any kind of competition contender - BUT - it was a fun build and now sits alongside the Alaska.
The DKM H Class battleship ("Pommern" basically) is on the to-do list as well as the HMS Exeter (started), New Jersey and Yamato - all 1/350























Sorry for the not so great pictures - I am having to resort to my phone lately because the battery for my DSLR blew up and I haven't bought a new one yet.

As always, thanks for stopping in and having a look

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Great build, as usual! :thumbsup:  :thumbsup:


Reminds me that I need to start on my 1/350 fleet before I can't do 1/350.

That's what it's all about  :thumbsup:

Nice job!! It makes me think of a Japanese anime ship.
