Done in camo during fitout in '39. Wanted something different. Technically the optical equipment and small calibre guns were not fitted yet at the time.

Refer to http://www.bismarck-class.dk/tirpitz/gallery/galltirfittingout.html fifth row photos

It's mimicing a town with windows/streets etc. An example scheme can be found here:

That is definately the most unique camo I've ever seen.Well done.
