Author Topic: RMS Lusitania [WIP]  (Read 6064 times)

Over the last week or so I was out of ideas of what to build then suddenly hit me that I should build a ship. now if anyone remembers back in V8 I made Poseidon when I first join probably five weeks in I made Poseidon as my first ship build-
So during this week I've made Lusitania nearly 4 times due of skinny Hull, things not fitting in place, and it looked strange but two days ago I made the fourth time and got a few clan members to help out.











New: Starting on the insides and now im doin' it Godik style :D



Well there is such very little information on this ship it will be nearly impossible for the interior however there is some old black and white pictures because this actual ship was made in 1907 or something. We will most likely finish the ship by the next couple of days so let me know how you like it so far.Also no duplicator was used, macro and our building skills were however.
In conclusion the credits:

Ya Xoax and I thought It'd be pretty funny if he placed one brick.

Boat seems rather skinny, like an anorexic Titanic. You have the main features correctly, the 4 stacks and stuff but the colors make it look Titanicishy. Try also making it wider, and shorter vertically. Just a suggestion, if it is way to difficult no worries.

Whats with the horrible brick texture?

Like I said there's very rare information on the boat which made it nearly impossible to build. Widen it out, Ha ha you should see the first three tries, But hey I might remake this as well and If I do I'll make sure it's flawless.

Does it bug you?


This is very good Hyrax, you did a nice job on the boat.
I'm glad to see potential still thriving in the gallery.

it is great so far ok i was gonna build my own battle ship i got the hull done and stoped

agreed, 8/10 to

Okay, a few things:

 It needs to be about three times wider. The hull does not taper correctly at the bow (and I can't see the stern), the bridge looks like an afterthought, you have practically no deckhouses, the boiler system is an obvious guess, the funnels are too tall, some details are there when they shouldn't be, and some details are missing.

I'm sorry, but I study more than Titanic, and this happens to be another interest of mine. I'm bound to be hard to please. Also, it's possible to find plenty of information on this, as I have already. Don't give up so easily.

P.S. Here is a treat for you:


Yar, I placed that brick, it has 21 seconds of awesome evented into it.

Saw that one coming. But on-topic it is way to thin, it looks like it would just tip.
