Hello All,
I have been constructing the bridge deck, containing the wheel house, the ships officers quarters and, at the rear, the swimming pool.
The pool is an interesting construction, it was covered by the top deck, but an opening was provided, so that sunshine could enter the pool. The top deck was called the lido and was open for first class passengers.
Pic 1 shows the bridge deck in overview. I am constructing lengthwise supports for the top deck, because it will be in 2 seperate parts, a grey central one, which will hold various air intakes and cargo hatches, and on both sides a long stretch in dark green, representing the part of the deck for handling the lifeboats.
In pic 2, the rear part at the left shows the deck area where the swimming pool is located, with the changing cabins. Pic 3 shows the lido deck that will cover the pool deck, with the open part. The funnel is located directly in front of the pool and looking up from the pool, you would be amazed by the view from the pool of the huge funnel rising up. How that looks like, is subject for the next step.
Cheers.
