I was wondering if any chance of getting a good Bismarck nameplate instead of the plastic one included with the kit. Also the possibility of a bow crest? I think if this scale these 2 items would be the finishing touches Thank to everyone for their help

There are these: http://www.freetimehobbies.com/FLH700028/ . But then you have to buy the other ships as well! PS, love your icon!

For the bow crest for a Graf Spee, I downloaded a suitable color image of the shield and printed it on glossy photo paper and gave it several coats of clear Varathane (actually dipping it, so the Varathane would drip off leaving a brushless surface). After several coats of Varathane it no longer looks like a paper item. I suppose you could also use epoxy glue.
