[REL] RMS Aquitania in both Cunard and Grey War colors

VonDos · 10-22-07, 02:51 PM

A pause while Aquila is under costruction..
Modified whit UBOAT234 authorization, a new NLUS, more AQUITANIA stile i think..

Just because i love the ocean liners (Cunard

)
Aquitania was the only four funnel ocean liners in service in ww2;
she's survived both great wars!

thank to UBOAT234 for original NLUS, and for the authorization to rework it!

really looks great!
i like 4 funnels

looking forward to it

Both excellent models. Would be very hard to fire on them!

thank you everyone ^^ in next hours i'll releaase this; just a problem to solve whit the floating line, too low

Very good work - can't wait to see the finished product released.

I like the bridge - did you use parts of the NPTR to make it? It does look quite accurate - good choice.

And of course, praise goes to UBOAT234 for making the original model, as you mentioned.

The deck is from BrAuxCruiser.. yes, NPTR is a clone without guns

WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I WANT IT!!!!!!!!
Not to be a "rompiballe", but i cant see if you have righted the bow.

VonDos · 10-23-07, 11:43 AM

Yes, i have righted the bow ^_^ and i'm also modifying other things, like funnel position, "pipes" near the bow, stern objects, superior deck..

You will see soon ^^

VonDos · 10-23-07, 04:43 PM

I just have some problems with the cables, and this will delay the release..

Wait.. just a day? :hmm: Tomorrow i will work on it, now i go to my bed..

For now, a screen with the last uptates:
solved the floating problem, i've reworked and added some parts..

Good night ^^

VonDos · 10-24-07, 10:21 AM

Fixed last problems..
I'm glad to release RMS Aquitania, in both Cunard and Gray War colors.

Hi,
I just saw the time difference between your "good-night" and your "release".
For sure: you do NOT sleep, eat or have to go to the place where even Goering went alone?

I'm astonished when I compare your picture with the real life picture.
Beancounter as I am (part of my skill profile

) I see still a mismatch in the shape of the bridge, or is it just me?

Anyway:

VonDos · 10-24-07, 03:21 PM

Thank you everyone ^^

for u49: the bridge is too high compared with the photo, but after pre-ww2 Aquitania refit a new bridge has been addes over the old.. i think this (beautyfull) photo show the pre-refit Aquitania.. but now i'm no sure ^^
I'll see, and eventually modify; thank you for the advice
