I was trying to find a a way to get large enough color line images of the Bismarck so I could decide which scheme I wanted her in. Posted a request for computer help. Well Sara McHugh a.k.a.Ladymodeller came to my rescue. She had a large scale printer (plotter) and did the entire series up for me and mailed it to me. Man you ought to see these puppies. I would say 1:200 scale. Now that's what I call suitable for framing>

Thats awesome Steve,
And what a great painting reference to go by! Just hang them on your wall above your bench to guide your painting. Then you can leave them there for decor !
Great idea having them enlarged.

:)

The very thought crossed my mind when I requested them.. That full ship black and white bar scheme from the pre-sorte period doesn't look so intimidating now
