1/700 DKM Bismarck - Flyhawk

Bismarck was the first of two Bismarck-class battleships built for Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine. Named after Chancellor Otto von Bismarck, they were the largest battleships ever built by Germany, and two of the largest built by any European power.

[@thesant3905]

Amazing, truly an incredible ship, I don't want to think what the german thought when they heard the news about her fate... Btw, could you next time do the Yamato's sistership and also a carrier, the Shinano, the Fujimi one i would recommend, since Tamiya's common Shinano is only waterline

[@KumaModels]

Thank you very much! I'll see if I can get one.

[@thesant3905]

@@KumaModels I recommend you on ebay, some people can sell it to you on 90 dollars at max (wich is crazy) but there are 3 guys who sell ot at 52 dollars or a little more, and they are from japan (presuming you are from japan, aince your name is Kuma wich is bear) The time is amazing as well, I order one on october 10 and the max time was on december 16, but it will arrive on the 23 of this month, the best part is that I'm from South America

[@richardbaxter2057]

I’ve watched this and the PoW build and have really enjoyed both of them! Hasn’t Flyhawk made such a difference to Ship modelling? ❤️ I’m not a fan of wood decks....trying to concoct a paint colour that remains sufficiently light enough, after clear coating it though, has been a bit of a chore!!! 😎 However, I’ve just about got there! 🤪 Re the Brass Gun Barrels...I admire your patience and faith! Drilling out and replacing, without getting one, or more of them misaligned is beyond me! I’m also sufficiently Obsessive Compulsive enough, that if one of those barrels goes wrong then that’s it...fist of death for the whole kit....💀 suffice to say that my skills with the sandpaper’s are bang on 😎🤪😂 I’m hoping that Flyhawk bring out some 1/350 kits but I’d like to see you have a go at the Pontos Yamato (1/700) full Hull, etc.... ATB and I’ve subscribed.....👍🏻👍🏻

[@KumaModels]

Thank you very much! I think Flyhawk had plans to make a 1/350 scale Prince of Wales kit, I’m not sure if they’ll officially announce it anytime soon.

[@craigwest8386]

At 1:700 scale, that's a daunting task you accomplished. Beautiful model, Flyhawk is the best warship model manufacturer at this scale I have seen to date. If there is another that's better, I would really like to know. At the moment, I am trying to acquire one of everything they have done in 1:700 scale. I am currently building the Scharnhorst 1940 deluxe edition. Deciding on the best sequence for construction and painting is most difficult. Some of the parts are so small, it's almost impossible if I choose the wrong sequence.

[@KumaModels]

Thank you very much! I agree, Flyhawk's quality is way better than other manufacturers.

[@lehagusev583]

Грандиозная работа!!! Великолепно!!!

[@KumaModels]

Thank you very much! Спасибо!

[@loewiehaans4305]

What an awesome build. quik question: did the brass barrels that you showed in the beginning and the wooden deck come in the expansion box or did you bought them separate? If the wooden deck is a separate is it worth it for a more beginner, or is the original deck of the set already textured?

[@KumaModels]

Thank you very much! The brass barrels for the 10.5 cm guns were sold separately as well as the wooden deck. I like to use the wooden deck because it saves me time from masking the deck and it's like a sticker so it wouldn't be that difficult for a beginner. The wooden deck I bought also came with pre-cut masking as well. If you choose not to buy a wooden deck, the details on the deck are still very nice!

[@pietrooliani3251]

very nice work, i'm not sure about the white stripe on the 150 mm turrets and personally i would have added a bit more wethering on the hull

[@KumaModels]

Thank you very much!

[@ieattofu8178]

Amazing! May I ask what brush do you use for the small details?

[@KumaModels]

Thank you very much! I used a size 00000 brush as well as a 000 brush.

I'm just doing the Revell one and all of the details are missing. Very good build👍

[@KumaModels]

[@PirateWorld1]

I would like to make a suggestion for a future model. Trumpeter has a series of early American battleships, ranging from early Ships like the USS Maryland, to mid-late ships like the USS Colorado, to later ships like the ISS Tennessee. I think it would be a fun and unique build. I will warn you though, they are pretty small. The round supports under the turrets (I forget what they are called” are about as big as a dime. Cheers!

[@KumaModels]

I'll think about it!

[@richmondtigers7495]
