After ordering a bunch of ships earlier this month I've finally got around to painting one. Not massively pleased with how it looks in these photos, the wash I put on looks awful! But it looks ok in real life so I'm not going to do to much more. Here's my version of the Bismarck in her revised Baltic fleet scheme (circa march-may 1941):
The model is originally by a company called Davco, mastered in 1977, now made by Skytrex. I did very little with the model itself other than cleaning it up and adding the masts. The sea is just crinkled up tin foil stuck on a plasticard base, with added bow wave and wake sculpted on in milliput. I've got a ton more ships, just German and British at the moment, I'll no doubt end up doing a load of Italian ships too at some point.
Next up for painting will probably have to be Prinz Eugen.
