This is still a subject I too would love to model. I really love to lines of this aircraft. Not digging the seat belts though. They are lacking dimension.
I didn't know you were professional chef, Toshi. I too have been in the industry for over 20 years myself. I made it as far up the ladder as I could without making it onto my own TV show, and then I burned out. I loved working in a Casino however. The teamwork was top notch! I tip my hat to you, my fellow comrade. :D
I trust your coat is still pressed and hung with care, as mine has been. lol
I think your choice of Bismark markings would be best. You really don't see them very often and there is more historical value in my opinion. I may not model ships, but the story of the Bismark, is that of legends. Same as the Yamato, and the Arizona.
If I ever model a ship, it would be one of, or all 3 of those.
Treat your missus right. I love mine to the ends of the earth, but she still has not purchased one single model for me lol. At least she supports my hobby. Hers is playing World of Warcraft, I think. She's a photographer, but I don't think that's a hobby for her, as much as its a passion. She has a pure talent for that. Maybe she'll let me share one of her photos some day. ;)
Sorry if I'm meandering in thought here. I, like so many other here on this forum, just like talking with you, my friend. lol
