    Bismark, en-route to Gotenhafen, March 1941.

    Here's my Airfix 1/600 Bismark in icy seas.

    The base is an old cupboard door and the 'Ice' is ordinary filler. The small amount of water movement is clear silicone.

                      Beautiful work. By the 6th picture with the shadow on the starboard I'd been totally pulled in.

                        Chaps, I'm well happy you like the model.

                        For anyone wondering why the broken ice in front of the ship, at the time she was escorted by the old battleship cum Ice Breaker 'Schlesien', which cleared a passage ahead of Bismark.

                        Thanks ever so much for all your most excellent and complimentary posts.

                        Cheers.
                        Ron
