A nice site about the Bismarckhttp://www.kbismarck.com/

Bismarck's appearance from March to May 1941 during the sea trials in the Baltic Sea. The battleship was painted with this camouflage pattern during the winter of 1940-1941. This included three angled black and white stripes over the hull and superstructure, with the ship's ends in dark grey and false white waves. For aerial recognition, swastikas were painted on the stern deck and breastworks over red banners, and dark grey was applied to the top of the main and secondary batteries.

The Bismarck as she looked when entering the Korsfjord in Norway on 21 May 1941. The cutters, yawls, and dinghies on both sides of the upper main deck were removed before the start of Operation Rheinübung. The bow anchor on the stem was removed as well.

The Bismarck in May 1941 as she looked during Operation Rheinübung after leaving the Korsfjord in Norway. The black and white stripes of the hull were painted over while in Korsfjord on 21 May 1941. This is how the Bismarck looked like during the engagement with the battle cruiser Hood (swastikas covered).
