There should be plenty of icebergs ingame for her to hit.

Looks good VD as usual.

I got one for you,how about the SS United States,a ship still afloat today,would be harder to sink though,it was a trans atlantic liner,but the thinking was in war time it would be a troop ship,developed for the navy it has many water tight compartments ready for war time use.
Here is the full story..

Still the fastest liner afloat.
Bigger than Titanic..

As great as usual, thuogh for my liking it could be a sort of gost ship for SH3.

Just glimpsed at HMS Warspite at your signature VonDos aand was struck by the idea that we still don't have HMS Renown while having nice Repulce model. May be a next moding idea to share?!

It would be great if you could build the S.S. America, which was the smaller version of the S.S. United States. The America was used as a troop transport throughout WW2 and went by the name of S.S. West Point during wartime. She sailed unescorted due to her high speed. By the end of the war the West Point had transported over a 100,000 Allied soldiers. The America also had numerous gun emplacements on board during the war:

The S.S. America would make a beautiful and historically accurate target!
(My Dad sailed on her along with 6,000 other soldiers from Norfolk to Naples,Italy in 1943!)

Can you make the S.S. America?

One question: Are you going to add some defenses to this baby? :hmm:
Some guns on the stern or on the bow?

Looking good VonDos, I wish I could help you out with the wake problem! Where's Rubini when you need him!

Thanks, Reece; for now Privateer is giving me a GREAT hand ^_^

This ship will be released also with some guns, probably, yes; SS America could be a nice mod idea for the future, like laconia also...

VonDos,

Your model of the Rex has some of the basic shape of the SS America, perhaps you could use it as a starting point for a model of the SS America.

The Titanic looks fantastic! Just gorgeous!

I love that first picture VonDos. Looks like she is coming along very nicely. Wish I could give ship building a try.
