    Amazing job !! THANKS ! I built the Bismark model back in he 70's, a lot less care to detail as you have done. A so called friend saw it and decided to do a book report on the Bismark for a class project. He did his report,THEN came to me wanting to use the model for his class project. I was hesitent but allowed him to take it. A week later, there was a bag addressed to me at my parents side porch. Opening the bag, my Bismark model was in many broken parts. That was my last model ever. Now, I am old guy but your video has encouraged me to give it another go. Fast forward to now days and we have better glues, paints, air guns "cheap," but most of all, we have EXCELLENT youtube tutorials for great ideas and posibilities !! Thanks again !!

    I'm looking at this kit right now. It's a nice touch that Tamiya has included the option to depict her after the stripes and false bow and stern were painted over. Nearly every other kit only has her with the stripes. Which look great, but are a pain to do on the superstructure.

    How can Tamiya include or exclude the option to depict her in any particular way? I don't understand your assertion because the paint scheme is always left up to the builder. You are not locked-in with what Tamiya wants.....

I have to admit you did a SPECTACULAR job on this ship !! I am impressed with not only your model-building skills , but this video was well edited to include the entire process from start to finish WHILE educating the viewer on both the methods AND some history of the ship as well...BRAVO !!

    Incredible build video, the Bismarck portrayed in her proper time period with the painted top and the super structure camouflage.

    I have this kit, and an Eduard PE set, and Aber L11 barrel set. And I feel totally overwhelmed. I have not put a kit together since my early 20's and I am 62 years old. But seeing all the photos of this kit makes me want to give it a shot. But I am basically starting over again. Plus in my day there was no PE. This is what scares me the most. Looks very complicated and difficult to work with. But I also am in no hurry. I plan to weather covid and this winter working on it. I don't know anything about washes and 'marbling' but I'll learn. I have a Badger airbrush, but I need a compressor. I need a lot of stuff, but I can get started doing the basic stuff until I get everything. Thanks for an informative video. Keep them coming!

    Hi George, modeling techniques, accessories and tools sure have advanced since the hobby began and certainly has exploded in the last couple of decades. PE can be a challenge, but after getting your feet wet - it gets a little easier, so stick with it. I consider it essential for ship models myself. If you have the patience, you can easily pick up on the detailing techniques and amaze yourself with each new build. Good Luck and have great fun! 😄

I have been thinking of making this kit, as a thank you, to my father. My father, FRANK ALBERT RICHARD GREEN, was the wine stewarist on the KING GEORGE V battleship. He was on the K.G.V .when the BISMARK went down. The order was that ALL HANDS on the K.G.V. were to stay at their station. Only a hand full of sailers and officers were allowed to watch the BISMARK......sink.

Little did I know at the time I was right under the massive fire & bomb damage she went through back in 69' Almost the same situation that occurred on the Forrestal in 67'.
