I start to detail the central deck bow and also I added the aerial platforms fitted for the planned operation Sea Lion.

that is just fabulous!

Very impressive work ! Model building at it's best.

Thanks for your comments, guys! Here below you are some lifeboats ready to be fitted on board.

Once again lifeboats.. the work about them is almost finished and in a couple of days I hope to be able to put them on the ship.

Hi guys, thanks for your previous comments! Finally I fitted almost all lifeboats on deck.

This is a beautiful model. I am amazed at the detail you are getting at 1:400!

Nice build. Those boats are awesome.

Jorge

The amazing work continues !

Thanks for your comments guys! In a short time I will start the masts, I will post a short step by step.

great building quality Bento

This is absolutely wonderful!! The paintwork is outstanding and the details are mind-blowing at this scale! And scratch-building all of that is just too good! I was bitten by a "liner bug" (which caused me some serious diseases back when I was younger) today as I scroll through the nets finding some photos to make a painting. Will be watching this one with great interest!!

Thanks Norbert and thanks aop, is very nice for me to read yours comments. Today I built the small davits for the two stern lifeboats. The lifeboats are long about 19mm.

Hi guys, here below you can see two pictures about the bow mast of my Bremen. the stern mast are under construction, I will also post a couple of pictures of them when ready for the primer.

beautiful and crisp!



Best wishes

Insanely beautiful work!

Your models are amazing. Have you found specific Lifecolor paints for your build or did you mix your own? I know Lifecolor makes 2 KM sets, but they don't cover the dunkelgrun you used?

Thanks to Jim, Quincy and Dan, obviously, on my models I use only Lifecolor paints, so many colours are from the two sets for KM you refer. The dark green I used on the Bremen is the UA511, a colour dedicated to the Luftwaffe, but it is very similat to the 35-3 Dunkelgrun for the costal areas showed in the Anstriche und Tarnanstriche der deutshen Kriegsmarine.

i'm running out of superlatives...and i can't find a way to express my comments in english, so i'll stuck to a dialect that i share with Bento.

Belin che bela....
