That is a really nice Bismarck, the modeler did an excellent job. Hopefully he'll post it to MW as well. Incidentally, that AZ build is mine. I haven't worked much on it lately (lots of other commitments and little time unfortunately.) I'm still waiting to have copies of the 5"/51 cast and I ran out of wood for the deck...oops. I think I'll have it done someday. Here's probably the last pic I took of it, showing a casemate in progress with the 5"/51 master. The 5"/25 is a mix of products, the resin barrel is cut down from the L'arsenal 5"/38. The railings are from L'arsenal and the metal base is from Classic Warships.
