at last the bismarck is finnished, the photo etch set was a pain to fit, some off the parts, like the portholes arnt much bigger than a pin head :-[ but having said that, it does make the model so much better, i also put some radio rigging on, its a wonder what a reel of black cotton can do, wether or not the rigging is accurate i'm not sure, the pictures in the model instructions arnt to clear, but its good enough.
as you know i'm a tank nut, and because of that there is part of a piece on the bismarck that is from a 1/16 tank, can you spot what it is, and where it is
, theres no prize for guessing right
. lastly, it was fun to do this model especially as its being given to the royal naval gunnery school, would i do it again, yes i would, but not for awhile, i much prefer my tanks. i hope you like the end result.
