Welcome back, I missed seeing your build thread which to my mind is the best model I've seen in a very long time.

How long will a 1:100 Bismarck be?

hard to say, 5-10 years (maybe)

It will be 100th the length of the original ship - you can look that up.

2.5metres long (8foot 3inches long), so definitly a Trailer, estate car or two part hull job. That is still excellent work Tomasz. I am inspired by it and will keep my eye out for further progress. Sometimes, huge projects burn your enthusiasm out, so pace yourself!

Bloody hell!!!! That is incredible work.

So glad that this build hasn't fallen off the radar...........

Flakvierling C38

Tomasz. · « **Reply #158 on:** December 07, 2015, 08:36:45 pm »

better quality

derekwarner · « **Reply #159 on:** December 07, 2015, 09:39:00 pm »

Tomasz......that is amazing scale quality

Interestingly, I found versions of the Flakvieling C38 mounting that used hand elevation drive [two men = four hands] as opposed to hydraulic drive.....

Studies have shown that these Flakvieling C38 mountings were far superior to the AA mounts as used by the RN at the time.......Derek

Welcome back . I have missed your work, the flak guns are amazing, as to be expected from you. I for one can't get enough of your work.

Tomasz
Brilliant work and build quality, some thing I'm sure we all aspire to- I certainly do! Look forward to your next instalment.

Derek
The C38 may have been supposedly superior but it suffered a massive flaw- it was designed to predict modern aircraft for the time I.e Messerschmitt 109 speeds not Fairey Swordfish, due to the predicter sights set to shoot down modern aircraft the AA guns continually fired forward of the Swordfish never getting close to the them!- so the closer the attacking Swordfish got, the further the sights were out, the poor old swordfish wasn't fast enough for the modern AA sights! Which meant the Bismarck was defenceless against an obsolete torpedo bomber.
