I am considering enhancing the paint scheme using this December 1939 camouflage. This document comes from
kbismarck.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=467 and was researched by Abram Joslin and Antonio Bonomi. There is a great deal of material on the web about this famous ship, much of it very much of interest to the modeller. One day I would like to build one at a larger scale. I would also quite like to add some of the rigging if I can figure out a way to do it well and convincingly. Perhaps some very thin thread attached with tiny dots of superglue? One of the things I am not happy with the kit is the aircraft which Airfix have you paint in green. I have done so and it looks pretty awful. The problem is that it is so small that to try to do anything more authentic would be very difficult and adding a propeller would be nigh-on impossible.
