It's amazing what you can find in your  "don't throw it away it might come in handy in the future" box  ::) ::) ::)

Filler added to the stern of the ship, will smooth off when dry. Also the wheelhouse has now had its front and armoured window made - MUST remember to add all the bits and bobs inside the wheelhouse BEFORE fastening the front section into place permanently  :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\

Bits and bods added think it needs some information sheets on the bulkheads and maybe a copy of Pravda for the crew to read  ;D ;D ;D

Thanks Kev G-J for the bits from the magazine how to build the Bismark.  The scale is 1/200 so will show the boats upside down on the 1/35 scale dock so they fit in,  will also drill out the props and rust them up and make a pile with the anchors.

Crate made to put on the dockside with one of the props inside - will have the lid made but place it alongside NOT nailed in place so you can't see what is inside  ::) ::) ::) ::)
