Hi all,
I have been looking at the excellent photos of QE2 in Dubai which have been posted recently showing work of some kind has started on the ship. These photos are a bit annoying! With the boats and davits removed a whole lot of detail has been revealed which I now need to incorporate into my model - so they're very useful really. Just when I thought I had enough detail in place on the Boat Deck I am going back to do some more. I suppose one could just stop looking at new photos of the ship but it'll work out better in the end.
I'll post some more pics soon for those who are following this.
In other news, the model of the windjammer of which I put up a photo a little while ago is going off to a museum. I don't mind admitting I am quite pleased about this because it is the first time in the pursuit of my building these models that their quality has been endorsed by someone other than the kind people who inhabit this website!
Hi Lachlan
The Photos are good, and it's a shame that they could be unhelpful too!
At least you wont have to add ladders and cables.
And - Your QE2 won't be dusty!
Will you have the Lights on, on the open decks - Lovely glass globes on poles (there are photos around if you need them too?!) maybe you are going to manage to add a couple of Cunard Benches, there were midships on the Boat deck.
Do you remember them - I have a photo!
Congratulations!
Do you mean the Moshulu - going to a Museum? Is it a Maritime one in Melbourne?
If not there, then maybe Brisbane? There is a fine walk along the River too!
We'd better club together and come over for both unveiling of your QE2, and pay a visit to You Model in the Museum as well!
Hoping the autumn isn't too near at hand...
All the best
Rosie
