The design depicts the so-called \"Baltic paint scheme\", i.e., camouflage containing black and white stripes and red tops of artillery towers. Such colours were used during training in the Baltic Sea. The model contains no stickers and has numerous movable parts such as propellers, rudders, rotating turrets and gun barrels that can be raised and lowered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHistory.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCompleted in August 1940, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eBismarck\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and her sister ship \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eTirpitz\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e were the largest battleships ever built by Germany.
