Another view of searchlight platforms. I will build the covers for the searchlights and epoxy them to the stack and platform.

I hope to do roof work on the two area's next to the stack. The undersides of the roof material have been sealed and should be able to be glued in place later tonight.
I plan on stetting the Bismarck up like the guys do in the MWC. Depending on where the MWC Nats is next year I would like to battle him there. With the ESC I have, it makes it much easier to switch back and for th from Treaty to MWC configuration.

 

Just came up from the workshop. I was looking at my Anatomy of the Battleship Bismarck book and found that something just did not look right...
I had the searchlight platforms reversed. The forward platform was aft and the aft platform was forward. Duh.... I just corrected the problem along with completing the roof on both structures next to the stack.
Thanks,

 

Here is a port view of the searchlight platforms in their correct location.

 

By the way, you can see that the roof is glued on the aircraft hanger.
