I construced each panel of the retractable magrodome plus all the interior decoration and furniture. That was the first try-out, later applied for QM2´s magrodome and Mauretania´s Verandah Cafe for furniture and plants.

The Horizon, published in the 1990s, is in fact a Van Kampen Model. That means only three passenger ships have been addded in 55 years! Ironically, my dad used to build some of those in his childhood. The graphics and style are charming, but not really up to my standard. You have to make substantial changes to bring about a good model. If I had to do it again, I would now substitute major elements like the bridge front where the print is very inaccurate and the shaping problematic no matter how fine your craft is. Nonetheless, I like the model of this mini-Zim liner.
so Pacific Dream which i have is not an original whm model???

It is a Van Kampen Model, obviously traded by WHV but also by Van Kampen himself. The WHV version had Problems with the print, it was very inaccurate. Maybe they changed it later. Could be.

The MS Berlin, also a WHV model. I got a CD with pics from the net to improve the simple kit. The result is a nice version of this Deilmann cruise ship.
