My 1/144 Titanic Bow

I built this a while back - it is a beta -test build there are several flaws to fix.
i.e - no railings. Lettering is the wrong color.
The cross-section art is very rudimentary and needs to be totally redrawn.
I never did finish the winches...
But still I like it, Especially the hullplating, which is very realistic.

The hull is made up of alternating strips, basically just like the original...

length of model

The bow is just about 11 inches long.

The complete model would be a little over 6 feet long.
Its on my todo list

MF, I think your "to-do" list would have me quaking in my boots! (Or is that "quacking"?)

:D

Looks like a lot of fun...
