Bismarck

If it goes on or under the wet stuff and doesn't fly, it's in here.

Nice work mate. The handrails really add to the model. 8-)

Stunning work, what a difference the PE makes and the colour scheme so much better than plain grey.

Thank you both, Martin and Alan, I didn't go to town with the PE, just enough to add some detail :)

That looks great, Ratch and, as it's you, I'm taking an heducated guess that this is the venerable Airfix kit nicely upgraded some PE railings :-D Excellent paint job and seascape plus it looks good photographed with the Z-23 as an "escort".

Thanks Shaun, it is indeed the old Airfix 1/600 seadog (in need of retirement) :twisted:
