Build the Titanic a part work. 1\250 scale

[peterairfix]

Time for a what if.
If Titanic had not sunk perhaps she would been a troopship.
So I will be using hachettes build the Titanic part work magazine's.
The main hull is all plank on frame.
Here's some of what's been built and a couple of illustrations of the Olympic in her dazzle colours of witch I will be using.
This part takes the build up to the start of the first layer of planking.

Hi Peter
Airfix this ain’t. Looks interesting, especially the razzle dazzle. I’ll sit in if I may

Currently at the moment I'm out of white paint so she's being done as a standard liner hence the lack of pictures.

As it stands I have done the planking and finished the second layer that will contains the portholes.
But most of the build is the same as the last one I did but I am not going[ATTACH]300709[/ATTACH][ATTACH]300710[/ATTACH][ATTACH]300711[/ATTACH][ATTACH]300712[/ATTACH][ATTACH]300713[/ATTACH][ATTACH]300714[/ATTACH] follow the instructions
