Top work Si., nice one.

Thanks Ron, she looks better in natural light. I had the camera on macro and the flash going, the pics are clear and sharp (for once) but the detail looks ragged to me due to the closeness of the images. When you stand back and look it actually looks rather good.

hmmmm this build gives me an idea of what to do with my broken 1:350 bismark [it fell off the display shelf] so i was wondering what to do with it weather to sink it or bin it and buy a new one i know some of the bits got smashed off and some of the lifeboats are missing and few other bits ore broken and cracked but i don't suppose that matters i just dont know how to recreate the seabed i would have to do some serious research.

as you may know i am building the prince of wales so i guess it would be appropriate to show a sinking or sunken model of the bismark all help on how to do a diorama would be apreciated thanks guys

Hi Dave, funnily enough I did the Bismarck a 1/700 scale sunken version. The seabed is created by using sealant and sand, I used the matt match-pots you can get from DIY places to do the surface.
