Title: Bismarck 1/150th scale fittings and figures?
Post by: type1x on February 10, 2008, 11:00:54 pm

I want to start adding a bit more detailing to my 1/150 scale R/C Bismarck. It is quite detailed at the moment but I would like to add a few more deck fittings and the usual clutter that would have been found on the deck. Figures are another item that I would like to add but naval figures in this scale are very hard to find. Anyone know of a good source for any of these fittings, figures etc ???

Another job to do is fit some nav lights to the model but again I need to find a drawing or some more detailed information as to where these lights should go. Lots of pics of the actual ship but no detailed pics or info as to where the nav lights should go. :(

The next item on the wish list is to find a larger scale model of the Bismarck, that is if I can persuade my wife that we really do need one to add to the fleet of subs and other ships. :) Time to start looking in the for sale ads I think.

Ontracks do 1:144 scale figures. Hardly any difference in size and not necerssarily navy but whose going to notice by the time they are painted. O0
