I am also experimenting with more complex rigging on the ships - this model has circular wire spreaders for the top cables in the rigging - you can see these on the masts of similar ships of the era.

I've been experimenting with simpler skins, with decals and 3d objects to give a greater sense of detail.

Like the "Lusitania" model, the railings are made using an alpha channel, which saves a huge number of polygons and looks better (IMHO) than actual, 3d rails.

Not 100% happy with the portholes, which may need to be redone...
you r very good at modeling, do u think u could help out with Day of Infamy?
