Default Titanic 1:400 JSC amended full hull.

Some time ago not start a new thread, but every day I visit this forum.
I take time working on this project is well underway and I want to share it here.



The project is to modify a boat that comes waterline hull to complete the first test and I'm doing with the titanic of JSC.



The first thing I did was move the internal structure in the original paper to a carton of 1 mm

The first idea is to adapt the pieces of model Gomix that he also bought.



But the waterline of the two models do not match, as can be seen in this photo.



The JSC model is more unreal, I can only use the profile of the model Gomix and the remainder will build from scratch.

The first attempt was very bad



The second attempt was better







continue ..............

.............. and continue.

Now the problem is to paint the hull plating and disguising the court of original pieces to which I have made.

First the paint with a marker



But the result is not good and advised me try other solutions. For the next test short strips of colored hull and marks sheet and then the one to one hit to the hull. This time the result if I like.



Here you can see better comparison



The latest photos are of the promenade deck first class, I'm doing tests with cables chimneys, I'm still not sure how I will ride.







Tomorrow will finish mounting the helmet, I am eager to read your comments.

A greeting.

Very nice model, and I like the modifications you added. I've never seen this model, and I prefer full hulls to waterline models, so I follow this with great interest.

Where can the Gomix model be purchased, by the way? I forgot to ask.

I've bought in Poland in GPM - modele kartonowe, live in Spain and there are no problems with the shipment, if you live in the USA where you can not buy.

And so it is definitely the hull of this model







Here you can see compared with the first attempt





I hope your comments.

I was studying your aft build and the stern did not appear as I remembered it. Specifically the Port and Starboad drive assembly. I built the Revell model several years ago. After looking up the pictures of the real thing, I just learned yours is correct and mine is wrong. Mine tilt upwards and yours tilt down. Now what? Do I tear it apart for the sake of accuracy? ---- Thanks, I was perfectly happy in my ignorance now you have forced me to reality.

Nice build by the way
