MadManSK Posted April 28, 2020 #1 Posted April 28, 2020 Hello. First excuse my English. Im Slovak. I had building log of my Bismarck here but from any time has been closed and not visible for everyone. Only for me when I was logged in. For this one I delete it... Between this time I finished this build and bring few slides. I dont know how many pictures I can publish... Quote

Tigerdvr Posted April 28, 2020 #15 Posted April 28, 2020 That Sir, IMHO, is an excellent example of what model ship building can be. You set a high standard for us mere mortals to strive for. The pictures aren't too shabby either.

yvesvidal Posted April 29, 2020 #17 Posted April 29, 2020 That is truly impressive. What a beautiful model. I love the fact that you decided to do the early "Camouflage" painting, that you installed all the lights and to top it off, that you made the model floating and RC controlled. What a fantastic achievement. Yves lmagna, mtaylor and MadManSK 3 Quote

MadManSK Posted April 29, 2020 Author #21 Posted April 29, 2020 I am bringing video of first voyage. Its possible watch also in 1080p quality... Sorry Its not so good because I still have not some holder for camera. In one hand radio controll and second camera. Next video I want made in dark. I want see lights on the ship and use some camera holder... video link: mtaylor, hof00, lmagna and 4 others 7 Quote
yvesvidal Posted April 29, 2020 #22 Posted April 29, 2020 You are a very brave man Jan. Floating this monster requires a certain dose of courage, especially after all the efforts you put into building it. The only Bismarck I "floated" was an old Lindberg Bismarck kit (1/350th) with a two ways radio control in it. It was a lot of fun. Yves mtaylor, lmagna and MadManSK 3 Quote
lmagna Posted April 29, 2020 #23 Posted April 29, 2020 Thanks for the Video Jan. I was into RC for a number of years and there is nothing like seeing your efforts sailing over the "Sea" in pursuit of the enemy! The day was too bright and calm though. It should have been more gray and gloomy. mtaylor, MadManSK and yvesvidal 3 Quote Lou Build logs: Colonial sloop Providence 1/48th scale kit bashed from AL Independence Currant builds: Constructo Brigantine Sentinel (Union) (On hold) Minicraft 1/350 Titanic (For the Admiral) 1/350 Heavy Cruiser USS Houston (Resin) Currant research/scratchbuild: Schooner USS Lanikai/Hermes Non ship build log: 1/35th UH-1H Huey
mtaylor Posted April 29, 2020 #24 Posted April 29, 2020 Amazing build and a great video. Thanks for showing it to us, Jan. The camo design seems to have an effect as sometimes (to my eyes) it's going backwards. I know it's not though. lmagna and MadManSK 2 Quote Mark "The shipwright is slow, but the wood is patient." - me Current Build: Past Builds: La Belle Poule 1765 - French Frigate from ANCRE plans - ON HOLD Triton Cross-Section NRG Hallf Hull Planking Kit HMS Sphinx 1775 - Vanguard Models - 1:64 Non-Ship Model: On hold, maybe forever: CH-53 Sikorsky - 1:48 - Revell - Completed Licorne - 1755 from Hahn Plans (Scratch) Version 2.0 (Abandoned)

I don't realize what can happen. I found this models on the net also Tirpitz. I never hear about this brand. It must be older. Its made in USA When I was a small boy we had all "made in Czechoslovakia, Rusia and east Europe countryes." We had also good products, but small assortment. Jan. mtaylor 1 Quote

So storm or dark.. ??? uhhh Next time I want testing lights in the dark. That pool will probably be too small for me ... 🙂 Jan. mtaylor 1 Quote

The camo design seems to have an effect as sometimes (to my eyes) it's going backwards. I know it's not though. Thank you Mark. Before I decided to build. I knew I would focus on two main things. Camouflage and rigging. I used realistic photos trying to create as much as possible similar to the real Bismarck. Because I saw several buildings and many of them had bad camouflage from my point of view. 😉 Jan. MM SK Edited April 30, 2020 by MadManSK mtaylor 1 Quote
