Congrats Yves, superb work. I hope you've enjoyed it as many like we did. I especially love the details: posters on the drawers, map and pen on the desk... -
Hi Yves, the flag looks way better now - but it hangs on wrong side. The small cross must be near the pole. Here is an original. happy modelling! Miki

Hi Bill, actually the real railing is white.

Hi Bill, first of all, amazing build. Cutty Sark is one of my favorite ship, been on her deck in 1994, before the restoration and i've built the 1:220 Revell kit too. The crewmen had no uniform. They wear their own clothes all time, usually light brown or white trousers and some shirt. The officers had a blue coat and blue trousers set, but they wear that ocassionally. By seagoing, they used the same garment than their crew. So no worry about the colors - all color is good. As reference, you might want to watch the series of 'Onedin Line' on youtube, their costumes accurately represents men's fashion of the era. Keep up the good work! Nick

Hi Chris, none of the mentioned flaws or errors are serious and all can be corrected easily, even the antenna wires or the decals if you revise this model in the next 40 years - i wish you could do! I completed mine about 25 years ago, before the Titanic movie fired up the attention to Titanic again. Mine is an older mould though, with many errors and inaccuracy. -Nick Budapest, Hungary

Hi Chris, she is a beauty. You did a marvelous job with a notorious joints of Academy/Minicraft kit (see the bridge and the deck joint for example), so accept my congratulations. Why did you neglect the Marconi antenna between the masts? https://d.newsweek.com/en/full/1592010/titanic-during-trials-belfast.jpg

Just an idea Yves. It popped up in me when read the escaping lights of the sphere. What if you light up the back of the background (any of them, Jupiter of your excellent painting) with a few white LEDs, and made a couple of stars by pinning the background with a needle? Anyhow, excellent work. Brings back memories of my childhood. Miki
