    Good close up picture of the searchlight platforms. The hanger roof needs a file taken to the sides to complete it. I plan on making the seachlight covers to add strenght to the platform and funnel area.
    I think the superstructure is coming along just fine.
    The post from earlier about the Bismarck seatrials was in fact German miss information for the Washington Naval Conference. :)

    I was able to start on the funnel cap tonight. Could not take pictures because of the batteries needing charged. I hope to work on the mainmast tomorrow night and will take pictures of both.

    I'm pretty sure that only the captain of the Bismarck called her that.

    I always thought it was A H that called Bismarck "him".
