sohoppy Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 (edited) Wonderful sight. Love the lighting - just the right kind of period 'soft white'. Edited February 21, 2020 by sohoppy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stelangton Posted February 15, 2020 Author Share Posted February 15, 2020 Thanks for the comments, the light shade was intended it’s warm white, didn’t know how many whites there was until I started the build 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoolioPaulio Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Wow this is incredible, nice work on the rigging, what did you use for it. I plan on building the 1/700 version as a gift for my dad, as he loves Titanic. Would love to do the 1/350 version, but I don't think he'd be able to display anything that big. Your lighting looks spot on, I plan on lighting mine and was going to go with a warm white as well, which is more in period I think. You've done a great job.

Stelangton Posted February 15, 2020 Author Share Posted February 15, 2020 Hello Hoolio, thanks very much, I used INFINI MODELS 110denier for the rigging, its the best ive used so far. think it was 10 quid from Sovereighn models. Its very easy to attach with a dab of CA. I think the key is even though its stretchy lycra, only stretch it enough to fit and that allows all the rigging to be a uniform thickness and flex when your wife knocks it as well😉!

Stelangton Posted February 15, 2020 Author Share Posted February 15, 2020 Defo look into fibre optic as well as it wont matter to much if you have any unsealed seams, that was the challenge for me. have a look at the work in progress and there are steps i used, most worked some didnt lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was lucky to get it on Ebay for £90 and it came with GMM fences, davits and masts to name a few. I had to scratch build the anchor on the front as the model didnt have it. Thankfully a fellow member 3d printed me an anchor that fit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanJohnB Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 Wow - that is phenomenal - the detail is amazing. I am surprised it only took 6 months - so much to look at and lights as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilg Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Tha's beautiful! I have one still in the box that I will get round to one day - I also bought a wood laminate for the boards. I want to learn how to do the rigging. Is that Jack and Rose on the bow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
