    Bruno all done, Bismarck not Frank!

    Consider this finished. Forgive the terrible photos!

    Thankfully found the missing hose reels. Shows up my usual PE issues, could have done better in a few areas

          Bob,

          That really does look the business!! It really does!!!!

          Very nicely done indeed and of course the shape of the main turret superstructure is not that far off a Stugs's!!

          Now of course the big question is what would old Harry think of it!:smiling2:

          Very well done indeed.

          Andrew

            Hi Bob
            That's great and unusual. It was huge!! It would be really nice to display it with a figure just to give a sense of scale.

                Just read that Takom are releasing the triple 6 inch secondary turret from the Yamato class as well.

                Any chance of the Scharnhorst??

                      Don't be so hard on yourself Bob. This turned out very nice indeed and really looks the part. Do you plan on weathering it a little??? I think after you get both turrets for the Yamamamoto and build them, you'll be amazed at just how good your ship building skills are Sir!!! Top job!!!

                              Hey Bob, It's your model and you can do what you want to it...But, I really can't recall ever seeing a picture of the Bismarck sailing across the Russian steppe in the spring thaw though..................

                              Paul's idea is better I think................
