Hi all started weathering the deck.
Must say I'm a bit disappointed Tamiya don't supply and decals with this kit

Turret ring teeth damage is excellent touch. Bet was messy when main turrets departed ship. Neato build.

Hi all added some damage to the superstructure
Trouble with doing a wreck is now I have to find out what the inside of that turret that's had the armour blown off looks like.

Well the turret is for one of the Bismark's 150 mm-SK-C/28 Weapons so that is what you are looking for. The below photo of one of the surviving similar mounts from the Gneisenau currently at Stevnsfort in southern Denmark might be of assistance:
This book might also be of use:

Hi all built some more of the superstructure and added some more damage to the decking
I know there is no debris from the wreck in the immediate area but I'm sorely tempted to use some artistic licence and add some.

Hi all well I've got lighting that seems more right scale wise, got another one of these to convert and ordered 2 more slightly different (just for variety) to add.

Hi all well I still thought the sub was a little over scale so I've cut it down as much as I can, I've also added 2 more and added a bit more superstructure.
I was thinking of adding another light, do you think that would be too much.

Yeah, too many light will spoil the deep sea impression.
