That looks like one hell of a project. It appears very nice but I wish that the resolution was better so we can see what the paper construction really looks like.

Actually the Bismarck from paper will be my next project. I'm just finishing up a paper P-51 Mustang from Halinski (1:33)... it's my first forey into paper modeling and it's turning out absolutely amazing.

I just can't decide which paper Bismarck I want to build. They all have pro's and cons. The HMV is 1:250 scale and you can get a $100 photo etch set for it for a total piece count of over 7,000!

The Halinski Bismarck is 1:200, has much better print quality, but you cannot get a photo etch set for it.

The BPM Bismarck is also 1:200 and you can get a very limited photo etch kit as well as aluminum gun barrels for it. The print quality is also very good.

I got to know Ralf at www.lighthousemodelart.com who sells these kits here in Canada and I'm just waiting to see what the GPM one looks like before I make my decision.

The paper models are harder to build then plastic and take alot more time but the end result... well... you can see that the end result is mindblowing.

Speechless, awestruck, what more can I say other than I think I'm getting interested in literally a ship from the box it came in.

Hey guys,

Not sure if any of you follow paper/cardboard modelling at all... but check out Scorpio's HMV 1:250 Bismarck... absolutely mindblowingly incredible job he did... all I can say is WOW! (I know the text is in Polish... but check out the pics Smile [:)])

http://www.kartonwork.pl/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1596&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=630

Also check out Roberts work on the Halinski 1:200 Bismarck that he just started... again... WOW! (Text is in German and Polish but again... check out the pics). German's are still very sensitive about the swastika so Robert had to cover it up you will note. Although this is an accurate represntation of a historical ship... not sure why we have to hide historical fact...
