The 1/350 Pontos Model Bismarck 1941 Detail Up Set #35022F1 is a premium, all-inclusive upgrade package created to push a standard 1/350 scale Bismarck kit to the highest level of historical accuracy and visual refinement. Tailored specifically to Bismarck’s 1941 configuration, this set reflects the battleship as she appeared during her final Atlantic operation, with attention paid to the dense surface detail and complex superstructure that defined the ship at that moment in time.
This detail-up set blends multiple high-quality materials to replace or enhance nearly every visible area of the model. Extensive photo-etched brass frets supply ultra-fine railings, ladders, radars, cranes, catapult structures, platforms, funnel grilles, and deck fittings, all far superior in scale fidelity compared to molded plastic parts. A precision laser-cut wooden deck is included, accurately replicating plank layout and texture while fitting cleanly around barbettes, hatches, and superstructure foundations. Turned metal barrels for the main and secondary armament provide sharp muzzle definition and correct scale thickness, while resin components improve the shape and detail of directors, rangefinders, and other complex fittings.
Rigging materials and comprehensive instructions are also part of the package, guiding the builder through the intricate mast assemblies and antenna runs that are such a prominent feature of Bismarck’s profile. When fully applied, the set dramatically enhances depth, realism, and scale accuracy, transforming the base kit into a museum-quality centerpiece.
