This is a wreck model I worked on for 2 years.  It features a multitude of scratchbuilding and creative design.

This is the link for the bow build

That's an outstanding, impressive work of art, even realistically haunting.  Congratulations.  You've truly captured her slow disintegration.

CHRIS- You have put the fear of wrecks in my psyche . After seeing that and the other young fellow,s work , I will NOT , repeat NOT attempt an old wreck. I was going to do the "BISMARK and her debris trail , Now that I see these , I have changed my mind . I used to be able do wrecked cars ,trucks and buildings real well but a rusticle debris filled ship five miles down NO WAY . My hat is off to those of you modelers who choose to be consumed in this kind of historical modelmaking , you are indeed craftsmen of the first degree. !!!     tankerbuilder

All things considered the Bismark wouldn't be a bad wreck to do.  I have one of those in the works to as a back burner to this project but a lot of the original paint is there and it's in a different part of the ocean subjected to different kinds of decay.  The Titanic is heavily rusted and decayed but the Bismarck and where she lies isn't subjected to that horrible of treatment.  You should totally go for it.
