Fenlander's 1/350 Revell Bismarck

[Gwyn]

Great project Graham, a lot of work. Good idea to have a couple of small kits on the go at the same time as a break from the main project. I look forward to seeing your progress.

Brass, plastic, steel. All the same mate. One bit at a time and you will get there. (This is why I said a whole year, so no need to rush).
Many have said that the Revell Bismark is a whole lot better than the Tamiya offering, then add to that all the brass and she'll be a beauty.
Need help dont forget to ask.

Cheers Ian. As with all brass, it has to make a difference for it to go on. Sometimes the PE and it's inherent flat thin section does not actually look a lot better than a rounded plastic piece. Each part will be judged on its merit

[Guest]

With all that PE very good luck

Cheers Pollux, although arriving safely in port is a bit ironic for a Bismarck build

I know

Oh God..... what have I done?

Ha Ha, this made me laugh out loud Graham! I'm sure this will give you hours of absorbing fun. Looking forward to seeing it being born!

Nice one Graham I'm doing the sister ship but no brass as of yet with mine.

Nice one Ian, be good to see the two 'sisters' being built. They do not need brass, if you wanted to keep it simple, get some photo etch railings.

Oh yes, hours of fun

Only hours? You planning some sort of speed build then Graham?

Everything can be measured in hours, this may take the full 8760.... (approximate, I have not taken a leap year into consideration or the slowing down of the universe, global warming or any effect Brexit may have on our UK hours compared to our European friends with their EU regulated hours or anything else that may bend, alter or reverse engineer time as we know it).

You was just teasin' us then!

Awesome project to attempt! will check in now and then.........Jim

[Guest]

This looks an amazing kit to build Graham. Better you than me, because just looking at the instructions has put me off something of this complexity.
Can't wait to see more

[Guest]
