Tamiya 1/350 Bismarck

March 6, 2025 · in Ships · · 7 · 177

Hi there. Over 40 years ago I built my first Bismarck model with my Dad on a beach holiday at Waiheke Island in New Zealand. Forty years later I thought I would have a crack at building it again. A Tamiya 1/350 version. This is my first model in 40 years, I have no airbrush and not much equipment. I look forward to applying rigging and some weathering now. Next project will be the Prince of Wales.

  3. Nice memories to have building with your dad Kevin. And a very neat Bismarck you have in your collection. Good luck with the Prince of Wales 👍

  4. Welcome to imodeler, Kevin! Impressive Bismarck.

  5. A great result you got there, I also started coming back to ship modelling with the Tamiya Bismarck and I think it is the ideal model for this purpose.
