Would be illegal for me to own. And i am not joking
ninetenduh
Ownership isn't even illegal in Germany you could just describe it as art if anyone ever asks.

I believe there's a loophole for this application.

Swastika censorship is stupid.
TheFallOfTroyML
It is !
BigJewishHulk
I don't think that symbol should be illegal. You can't collect ww2 stuff if you wanted to then? What about reinectemnt (*spelling)?
TheFallOfTroyML
Nope, austria has a very strict law that makes it illegal to own any nazi stuff
GuW69
Are communist symbols illegal too? (some are in Poland I think)
TheFallOfTroyML
Not that i am aware of, as far as i know only nazi stuff

Amazing dedication. I have to ask though- why a Nazi ship with a giant swastika on it?

Don't know why really, just fancied it. Thanks

I wonder how many people are gonna message you saying NAZI!
Korbendallas71
Lol lost count. People just see it out of context and decide to be offended. Seems to be more from the US side than Europe strangely
lordfluffycus
Well that makes sense. Europeans dont really care much about that. The US got into the war near the end and it feels too proud.
labtob
great, now set it on fire.

What glue do you use for the photo etch? I"m finishing up a Graf Spee and the super glue i'm using for the railings is making a mess.
Korbendallas71
I use a gel type CA. I apply a little bit of it with a sharp cocktail stick. Trick is to do short sections maybe an inch at a time
apatheticantisocialite
i'll keep that in mind. thanks!

For those wondering this is the song by Johnny Horton made for the movie Sink the Bismarck. Give it a listen. https://youtu.be/_RTuaqL-eD4

My dad's hunting party played JH's greatest hits all night while playing poker and pounding booze. Good memories.

This, North to Alaska, and Battle of New Orleans were part of my family's road trip music. So I totally get ya.
MountainsofMadness
Old man used to play them on cassette for road trips as a kid. Still love Johnny Horton.

ever sailed the sea, On her deck were guns as big as steers and shells as big as trees

pretty sure the shimakaze was faster and i think the terrible was faster than that both were destroyers though not battleships

It's just a dang song.

Out of the cold and foggy night came the British ship, the Hood, And every British seaman, he knew and understood, They had to sink the

makin' such a fuss, We gotta sink the Bismarck cause the world depends on us, Hit the decks a-runnin' boys and spin those guns around
Lifeangel
When we find the Bismarck we gotta cut her down, The Hood found the Bismarck on that fatal day, The Bismarck started firin' fifteen miles
james25000
Then came along an obsolete(almost) torpedo plane that dropped an egg and ruined her steering, that was the end of the Bismark.
Lifeangel
That's not how the song goes
DarthFutuza
Can you make it rhyme and fit the meter?
konnigvanmessen
I'm actually in the process of making a 1/350 Hood. I'm nowhere near this good though. This is museum-quality, seriously.
Happytimes
Dont mix the two, the Hood might just detonate...
Korbendallas71
Post a pic when u get the chance. Eyes not cut out for this scale anymore. Thanks for the comment.
konnigvanmessen
Korbendallas71
Class!!
konnigvanmessen
Ty. I got Lifecolor paints and have IPA in the cup so that's probably why the deck coat is so thin...
Korbendallas71
I'll follow you so I can watch with interest
Korbendallas71
Life colour do Kreigsmarine set don't they? I could only try and get close with my colours
TheGhostofElizabethShue
I dunno if you're going for historical accuracy or not, but the deck flag was covered at this point in it's history.
Korbendallas71
Yeah it was painted over at the start of Rheinubung. This was a few months earlier in the baltic training.
TheGhostofElizabethShue
Oh, Well then shouldn't the hull camo extend over the towers?
konnigvanmessen
Holy Scheisse that's good weathering. Nice job man.
Korbendallas71
Cheers bud. Glad u like it!!
konnigvanmessen
I mean seriously, I don't have the patience for that. I paint it, glue it, and be done with it. The most I do is Mo's camo.
Korbendallas71
I'm kind of the same man, just this one is for a computation in June. Just wanted to push the boat out a bit.

OP I absolutely admire your patience and dedication!!! How long have you been working on this?

About 3
Korbendallas71
Definitely not as bad as it seems. A couple of weeks from opening the box. An hour or so a night. Thanks
trepidity
Great job. Do you prefer ships or just models in general?
Korbendallas71
Thanks mate. Yeah do a bit of everything! Aircraft some subs and uboats etc
konnigvanmessen
What all did you use, brands included?
Korbendallas71
The photo etch is ww2 Kreigsmarine generic railings from starling models in the UK. Paints are vallejo acrylics. Swastika is a decal
Korbendallas71
The kit is MENGS new Bismarck. It's moulded in colours but does need painted if you're fussy about accuracy
konnigvanmessen
cool. My Hood is the Trumpeter (the *only* one) with Lifecolor British set (you can probably tell with one) and I forget the brand for deck.
porcupinebuttsniffer
Can someone tell me what I'm looking at here? Is this a painting? A model ship?
Korbendallas71
Model ship

Super job, kinda potato pictures. Which kit? Revell? What are you going to rig it with? Uschi "rig that thing"?
Korbendallas71
I'll do some better pics whangarei I'm finished. Yeah poor lighting. Yes... Uschi.003 not looking forward to it really.
Mishn0
Just be methodical. I found that if you can glue both ends to separate points and then stretch the slack to a hook of some sort it's easy.
Mishn0
Here's a pic of my M/S Batory.
- I glued the stays to the top of a turnbuckle on each side and then stretch
Mishn0
it over a hook on the mast. Both ends of a signal halyard were glued to a "pully" and the loop stretched over a hook I made from a piece of
Mishn0
PE railing glued to the bridge bulwark. Each piece of railing made three closely spaced hooks. Sort of like a bird's foot.

The Nazis had crazy prototypes for everything. I still love the volks fighter or whatever it was called. No training, just get in the jet.

I hope this isn't apart of a Nazi fleet of ships in your spare room. I hope there are a lot more allies in your collection.
DapperDeal
You guys realize it was a joke on whether he has a Nazi ship collection or a ship collection. Calm yourselves. I think he got the joke.
Korbendallas71
Yes there are a few :)

thank you!
ninetenduh
And what's wrong about a fleet of German ships?
DapperDeal
Not just German but Nazi ships. You know the people whose goal was world domination and genocide. Idk just weird I guess...
ninetenduh
Is that goal any different from the USA?
DapperDeal
In almost all regards, yes.
ninetenduh
So we ignore the facts and live in your dream world? Cool.
landforgottenbygod
"having german things=nazi" welp this is the reality now
DapperDeal
German things? It's a Nazi ship with a Nazi flag. I was mostly joking btw.
landforgottenbygod
can ships be indoctrinated in the nazims? ships in the nazi party yay soo can a ship be capitalist? or comunist?
