trumpeter 1/200 bismarck

thanks steve , mongoose . I appreciate the comments . I am making a board for it now , it wont be a flash one , but serviceable , I still really don't know what I am going to do with it .

I'm calling this baby done .

I was at the tip , and saw this . bit of a scrub up , able to load a few models on it .

Outstanding work and well displayed Steve!

Hi, Steve, I've just found this thread and read through it - what a treat!  An excellent build, superb PE work (I'm scared of the stuff, myself!), and beautifully painted and presented.  I have a part-built KGV in 1/350, hiding in its box at the back of the stash.  Hmmmm...

Nice tip find, too, by the way

Ah!

 The TIP! Wonderful place, that, sometimes! Last time I hit one was at a mall. It was full of useable Lexan for cases! Time before Ugh!

  You have done her proud! Oh, Before I forget, and no disrespect to the just finished ship, BUT, what riverboat is that on the Bottom right? I scratchbuild those in H.O. ( 1/87) scale to use up plastic and P.E.Leftovers!

Steve,

I apologize but I just saw this build log!  Great job!!!  By the way, what is "The Tip?"

Bill

Hi Bill;

 To give a general American answer it's the Trash Bin-Dumpster style. Remember, outside the Good Ole U.S.of A. they are described by how they are emptied! So it's a " Tip"

Thanks.  On submarines, we had Trash Disposal Units, or TDUs.

sorry for the late response TB , it's the robert e lee , you were a great help on this build to me . I have no email notification now , haven't had for a while . I have been busy on my viking ship , and fighting a bad back .
