Greetings -

 

this is not a build log per se but the website for the completed model, which has over 12 pages of build photos and explanations of what was done and how.  Plus, of course, finished model photos.

Amazing! I only managed to browse through a few pages, but I will definitely look at the rest when I have some time later.

Incredible.  Truly amazing work, well done!  My cousin is a Titanic nerd, has been since he was six years old, and he recently bought the Minicraft kit but isnt a modeler, so he asked me to build it for him.  So i will definitely be referencing your build--probably exclusively!  There is no way i can come close to the level of detail you have achieved, but i want to stay as historically accurate as possible with what i have to work with, so your website is exactly what i need to make that happen.  Your hard work is very much appreciated!

Hello Art,

On the kit hull, there appear to be nine portholes between the bottom two full hull length rows of portholes.  Are these in fact portholes, or something else? I don't see them on the TRMA sidelight diagram on your build site and  can 't see them on  photos.  I was just wondering if I should drill them out

 

Thanks,

Don

Good Morning,

 

The page by page description of Art's build is absolutely fascinating. What is missing is a description on how Art cut the hull in order to make the model a waterline  depiction such as her anchored at Cherbourg. That is how I would also like to portray her since that is how my great, great aunt would have seen her as she boarded at Cherbourg.

 

Thank so for any help.

 

Howard Potter
