This yacht looks very futuristic on the outside will the interior express the same sentiment?

Hi Michael 

 

Yes, you’re right!  Futuristic indeed on the outside and dare I say it, if you googled the actual yacht (Khalilah), I reckon you’d agree that its interior is slightly gaudy and ostentatious (to my tastes, anyway) on the inside. 

 

I can only only try to replicate what I can at this tiny scale, though. 

 

Thanks for dropping by. 

 

Cheers

 

Patrick

Thanks Pat

 

Genesis is most certainly a real joy to work on. Tricky, but fun, nevertheless.

I finally get over here in the scratch build forum..........I just had to see how you were progressing.   I see you have made some really good progress on her.....she's looking great in her updated paint........and you've done quite a bit to the interior!   very nice inside    I really like how the wood grain peeks out from the black.   I know how you feel about time........I haven't had much myself either.   it's a good thing the hobby is forgiving in that respect.     as long as your making progress,  then the journey still continues      keep up the stellar work!

Hi Denis, Lawrence and everyone else on MSW!!!!

 

 Thanks for your all of your comments and Likes!  They’re always greatly appreciated.

 

Whilst my working life has gone into overdrive over the past few months, (leaving precious little time for MSW), I have been able to make a little headway on Genisis’ interior. As you can see, the main saloon and the owner’s suite up for’ward have been started, as has the interior of the sun deck’s accommodation.

 

Lots of fun still to go.

 

A big Happy Father’s Day to all dad’s in Australia today!!!!

 

Cheers.

good to hear from you Patrick. Life has it ways with whatever we're doing ... I like the interior developing, looks a bit sixties at the scale ... nice work 

Cheers

[Omega1234]

Thanks Carl!

 

Yep. You’re right about the decor. Very 60’ish, yet retro at the same time. 

 

Thanks for looking in!

 

Cheers.

Thanks Vaddoc!

 

I’m glad you liked the ‘leopard skin’ rug under the curved settee in the saloon.  It’s actually cut from the latest Nespresso coffee brochure!  It’s amazing what a bit of imagination can do when you’re looking for colourful additions to a ship’s decor!

 

Have a great week.

 

Cheers.

Hi folks. 

 

Just a quick update on Genesis’ interior.  She now has chairs in the main saloon table and the outdoor table on the rear deck.

 

I hope you enjoy the following photos.  

 

Cheers.

Thanks Denis.  Yep.  It took me a while to figure how to do the curved dining table chairs, but, i’m Pretty pleased with the results!

Hi folks!  

 

Another quick update. I’ve done a bit more work on the interior of the Sky Lounge on the top deck. Everything is dry-fitted at this stage.  

 

I hope you enjoy these photos. 

 

All the best.

Hi Patrick,

 

Great progress! She’s starting to come together inside!

 

Also, I showed some of the pictures on your log to the colleague of mine familiar with Khalilah, and he was impressed that you pulled off the hull form, especially at such a small scale!

That’s a great compliment, for sure. Pls pass on my appreciation to your colleague. To be honest, this is definitely the most complex hull I’ve ever had to build.

 

Kudos to the designers who had the imagination and talent to design something like this!

 

All the best. 

 

Cheers.

Nice interior. I presume you use plastic for the cushions e.a. have you ever tried milliput or another one of those putties to make you cushions? You can shape them a lot easier ... just a thought which came up when I saw those "pillow rows" ...

Hi everyone!

 

Thanks for all of your Likes and comments.  Much appreciated.

 

Well...as you can tell, I’m having far too much fun working on Genesis’ interior.  She’s getting there, folks; she’s getting there.

 

Have a great weekend.

 

Enjoy.

Patrick,

 

Didn't think you could surpass the last one you did, well brother you crossed the mountain. The Mega yacht is above and beyond mighty impressive. Have absolutely enjoyed the birth and progression of this one. Kudos 10 times over.

HI John

 

Many thanks!  That's a mighty nice compliment.  

 

On a more serious note, I hope you're (and all of our American MSW members) safe and well, what with the Hurricane that's blowing through your country at the moment.

 

Stay safe.

 

Cheers
