Hello. Just wanted to show my Academy Tirpitz. I don't usually build ships but some ships from WW2 is a must, It came out pretty nice, don't you think so? I saw in a book of authors from Russia, battle ships WW2 a painting of Tirpits in a camo of green,brown and yellow.in june 1942. It was quite striking and a month later it was repainted in the grey shades like this one. It was really new to me. Anyone else that know something about that?
