Hello all,
Gneisenau: This scheme is how she looked in Operation Cerberus in February 1942. According to Eric Leon's "German Naval Camouflage", this strange paint scheme is the result of successive layers of paint and other measures applied over many months while at anchor at Brest. I'm pretty happy with how she turned out.
With sister Scharnhorst. Sharnhorst wore this pattern in May 1943, except I took some creative liberty with red turret tops rather than yellow..
The excellent models are from Roe's Shapeways store.
Enjoy!
