Very nice VonDos. A shame to blow her up.

Thanks.

After your magnific work with Aquitania & Aquila, can you try British Carriers like Eagle, Furious and Courageaus. It's a pity only Illustrious is in game.
Thanks in advance.

Coronas, what can i say?

Aquila for now is just a WIP..
she will require a lot of time.. (guns, hull, non3d nodes...)

but the future is looong

It's always a little sad to read up on those ships that have gone through so much and been there for so many people even saved them as a hospital ship, and then were just broken up like any piece of metal. Getting nostalgic here ...

I felt the same way when I read about the first aircraft carrier named Enterprise. Most decorated ship of the war. Served the whole time and participated in every major operation and after the war was just scrapped. Seems kind of heartless.

Lets hope the fastest Ocean Liner of all times will survive and someone will find a way to make her useful again.

@VonDos: Take your time, sir...but I shouldn't like a talent like yours wasted in a loooooooong future.

Hello Kaleuns,

iam just inspirated by VD´Aquitania to build a 3 Funnel-ship out of the Cunnard Liner.

Here are the first pictures.
It looks nearly like the "Cap Arcona".

I hope i can put this ship to real Cap Arcona design !
