  1. Hi everyone Yes, I know there is already a QM2 build on the go, but it was because of that one and the AMAZING Johnny Akes build that I HAD to *find and build one of my own - *which was not an easy task BTW The QM2 is such a beautiful looking ship for a floating hotel and the more I research her, the more I like her. I know that sounds suspiciously like I am Fake Book stalking a girl, but I promise it's not like that.... I have bought the GMM PE set and the Artwox deck set - both of which are here in front of me. HOWEVER, I somehow managed to buy a second PE set by accident - in the same order. I have no idea how I didn't notice that but I didn't. So:.....The spare set is now up for sale if anyone wants it? (shameless plug) I am also going to light this sucker up using the 5m Warm White LED strip that I got in the mail on Monday (thank you for that awesome suggestion Warren!!!! You are the man!) and also the implementation of many various coloured SMD's and Fiber Optics. I have seen a few lit QM2's on the net and they are very nice, but I hope to avoid making the same mistake a couple of them seemed to have made which is to use those massive 3mm LED's on the OUTSIDE of the ship (it looks terrible when the lights are out). So, a little bit abut the actual kit for those who have never heard of it until now (like me 4 weeks ago). It is a massive but beautiful beast made by Revell (kit #05223) that is sadly now out of production. My copy has a fair amount of flash on it, but nothing a file won't fix. There is a LOT to do on it but I do believe that the end result will be so worth it. It measures out to be an impressive 85cm long and has all the necessary details to make a decent replica of the QM2. There is a noticeable lack of windows behind the upper and lower decks but this is nothing some clear plastic sheet won't cure. I am intending on cutting some clear sheet up and spray it flat clear to help disperse the LED lighting behind it. It will also help to stop it looking like a void behind the spaces. So that's it for now - I'm sorry I haven't posted any pictures, but I promise I will do this once I get home from work and it's not dark outside (ie, Saturday) As always, thanks for stopping in! Regards, Si
