demonborger Posted February 3, 2014 Share #1 Posted February 3, 2014 Billing Boats RMS Titanic 1:144 Billing Boats RMS TitanicThe RMS Titanic was the largest ship afloat at the time it entered service. Titanic was the second of three Olympic class ocean liners operated by the White Star Line, and was built by the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast with Thomas Andrews as her naval architect. Andrews was among those lost during the sinking. On her maiden voyage, she carried 2,224 passengers and crew.Kit includes laser cut wooden hull and wooden strips, fittings set, rigging thread, plan and manualWooden HullScale 1:144Length: 1880mmWidth: 200mmHeight: 500mmPart No: B510 This would surely be the longest wooden ship kit on the market, longer even than the Amati HMS Victory.

demonborger Posted February 3, 2014 Author Share #4 Posted February 3, 2014 Lol I mean to post this in the kits section puckotred 1 Quote Kits owned: Mamoli Royal Louis, Mamoli Friesland, Mamoli HMS Victory 1:90, Occre Santisima Trinidad, Constructo HMS Prince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonborger Posted February 3, 2014 Author Share #5 Posted February 3, 2014 Thanks mods. The photo is from CMB and I suspect it is Billing Boats promotional material. First the Warrior and now the Titanic and Billing Boats is very active in developing new kits. It does make one curious to wonder what will come next?

mtaylor Posted February 4, 2014 Share #8 Posted February 4, 2014 Demonburger, Do you want this moved to the Kit Logs or would you rather review the kit here and then open a proper log?

demonborger Posted February 4, 2014 Author Share #9 Posted February 4, 2014 No I don't have the kit, I always meant to post it here in the kit section but mistakenly posted it in the wrong forum. I posted here because it is a new release and quite a substantial one that might interest some here. Furthermore I think it is an interesting approach by Billing Boats to release wooden kits of late 19th/early 20th century iron ships, it makes me curious as to what is next.

Jean-Pierre Posted February 10, 2014 Share #12 Posted February 10, 2014 I looked at the place available in my studio for this model, but then I thought I'd better choose the 1/570 scale model by Revell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
