Additionally you can buy:
- lasercut detail set 028a-L (floats, aerials, ladders, anchors etc.)

Other items that may be useful but available elsewhere:
- for retouching, we recommend Vallejo paints, 3 colors: German Panzer Gray 74.603 (RAL 7021), Medium Sea Gray 70.870 and Ghost Gray 70.615
- if you like to make rigging, you will also need brass or steel wire: 2 mm, 1.2 mm and 0.5 mm
To complement the text instructions and drawings, we filmed a video of how we built her step by step. In case you are confused with the colours in video - we built a prototype in different colours, but the shape of the parts and the gluing technique are identical to the model from the Denmark Strait. The film is divided into chapters with parts name and numbers needed to each section. You can choose and watch the part of the film that you need while building your Bismarck. https://youtu.be/p1-e5AWORLo
We also filmed a lasercut framework instructional video https://youtu.be/-YdJ7_rjOVM
The model and lasercut framework both have QR codes printed in the instruction sheets, which allows you to watch the build videos. How to watch these videos?
If your phone has internet access, click on the camera button and point the camera directly at the code. The video will automatically open in the YouTube app.
Another way is to copy the video links and paste them into the search bar on your computer.
