Hey sws35, let me say greetings from Australia.

That's a really interesting museum you have. I'm a huge fan of world war 2 vehicles and acn't get enough of the few museums we have over here. That aircraft tail - what aircraft is that part of?

Good luck with the build and you'll find plenty of help in here if you need it.

cheers

Rod

Hi sws35
Super pictures. Once again a very warm welcome to the forum.
How many Bismarcks are your group building, or are you the only one.

Hi Mike!
To date, our site registered over 1500 users. However, most only register and play no part in the forum did not accept. But about 10 people in St. Petersburg, 20 in Moscow, and another 20 across the country from Kaliningrad to Vladivostok take an active part in the forum, and even hold meetings. Alll made friends through the build of Bismarck. In Russia it is the first model produced in the magazines, perhaps it made want to build a model to come together to exchange information, methods of construction and just help each other in the acquisition issues.

Hi rod!
The aircraft tail - Bf.110

Sergey,

Thanks for sharing the pictures of the museum.

I know I won't be able to read your forum - I even struggle with the Cyrillic alphabet - but it would be great to have a link to it. (I must check to see if Mark has put in a link.)

Some people here (Mark, for one) have a signature that comes up automatically at the end of a post. Maybe it's possible to put that web address there.

Hello friends! Unfortunately, due to the accident a home computer was not able to put up material on the meeting of our club in St. Petersburg. We give only a link to a site where new materials for the exhibition, which we visited with friends.

Great photos Sergey. Seems like you have a good social model club.

I love the picture of you all standing underneath the No Photos sign !
Reminds me of a military museum I went to in China. There were signs (in English) saying, "No climbing on the exhibits, No Photos." What were the parents doing ? Putting their kids on the machinery and taking pictures !!

Hi Sergei!

Thank you for the nice pictures and links you've posted for us. Internet has to be praised also for shrinking the world to the size of a handkerchief, bringing St. Petersburg in the neighborhood... to our greatest pleasure! ;)

Too bad there's not a website link in Moscow showing all these Russians, Allies and Germans vehicles from that military museum!
