Wow... that's just amazing!!!

Thanks for posting the site Garry!
Looking at the pics makes me want to go out and build a Bismarck.. but I'm afraid the result would look nowhere as good as the pics I just witnessed.....

I didn't even know they will be raising the Graf Spee!!!
But this news actually causes mixed emotions for me:
On the one hand I would be thrilled if the raising would succeed, and I would kill to see how she looks in real life, but on the other hand I think she did her time, served her purpose and there's no need to commercialise every aspect of war and death...
But, these are just my thoughts....

Now that is just cool, you people are going to force me to build my Bismarch before I'm ready too.

But I must resist and what until I'm ready to devote the time and attention it will need.

What a ship.

THANKS

Howdy Garry,

All I can say is WOW!!!!!

A shot like that really makes me feel like I'm there......right then......maybe looking at her while on shore picnicing with a friendly Fraulien from a local town on the banks of this beautiful fjord, just waiting for orders to 'ship out'...............great stuff. Thx

I love it Gordon!
Is'nt that a pretty picture? I have had that on my screen saver for quite some time now. And like you, it makes me feel like I am right there! And in that era of time, just kicked back taking it all in. This guy who rendered this picture is good! Dont forget to take a look at the rest of his work. This is true art, just like a good story teller that makes you feel like you are part of the scheme!

Regards,

Garry
