Converting full hull to waterline


Etcher

Recommended Posts

Has anyone had experience using a wooden kit for a diorama where it basically becomes a waterline model? I’m thinking of building OcCre’s Terror in the future but in a diorama based upon the Dan Simmon’s novel, with the ship stuck in frozen water. This will be doubly attractive to me as I’m not keen on the lower hull of that ship anyway! 😂

 

I was thinking maybe of building it as normal with bulkheads and basically not planking it from a bit below the waterline. Then inserting it into a wooden support. It would be a quite deep surface but I intend to maybe having text from the novel around the sides of the wooden support, probably white text on black background, with ‘Terror’ at either end. I might do a drawing of it to further plan it out. 🧐
