Titanic by Sergio Camacho - FINISHED - Academy - 1/700


Recommended Posts

Hi Model ship world members.

 

Here are some pictures of my 1/700 Titanic Model Kit.

This is an ACADEMY model Kit MCP 1/700 scale and My first build.

Ever since I was 6 years old (32 years ago) I've always loved the history behind the Titanic. I remember being super exited on 1985 when it was discovered and I waited eagerly for the National geographic film to come out.

I even went to several book stores looking for the printed issue and my dad couldn't understand the fascination with the ship, but he went along with it.

I even bought (now lost 😪) reprints of the newspapers that came out the next morning of that tragic day. I've bought books and framed blueprint, you name it.

And now, I'm having the best time working on these model ships and I dont think I'll stop with the Titanics. Loved the new hobby.

Here are the pictures of my first build Titanic 1/700 Academy.

 

If you have any suggestions on improving this build, Please I welcome them all.

Nice little Titanic build there. I built a 53 inch R/C Titanic back in the 90s. I sailed it one or two times then took the radio gear out as it was not a very stable ship,despite 8= pounds of ballast in her. As I built it for a friend I don't have it anymore. The plans were from France I believe.
