More Floors!
Not a huge update, nothing too special of note at the moment, just posting some new beauty shots as I continue to flesh out the double bottom with more floors. Those under the Turbine Room are done and a few more forward. The last image of the people lounging around shows the cutouts in some of the floors for the air pump recesses in the Turbine Room.
Side note: I also have a bunch more people models for more variety in the characters used for scale. I think it's fun to use modern people as a way of bridging the gap between the old and new. I like to imagine this is a whole new Titanic we're building 1:1 out in a desert somewhere and we've invited folks to come and endanger themselves around the unfinished ship.

Stunning.
Man; i think everything looks incredible. I just lost my job and I refuse to pull back on my patronage. I believe in this program, I believe in the devs and program directors. I know the finished product is going to be absolutely stunning. Thanks for the updates, and all the hard work. 🍻
This is such an incredibly bold method of constructing the ship and it's kind of exciting to see. For all intents and purposes you're virtually building the real ship
or a "rebuild the titanic piece by piece!" model to home self building?
And you will rebuild the baot piece by piece, floor by floor ? I love to see that! And those picture can guide a 3D model with floors aparted to more study them one by one?
In image 8/8, the poor bloke must have one heck of a sore rump for sitting on the edge of the floor frame the way he is. Can't be comfortable!
I'd rather like to see 1900s British construction workers instead of modern people, but those aren't available on the market I guess.
Are those hull plates on the side going to be "folded" in or are they surplus or is there still more to be modeled to the edges?
There will be more that will curve around the bilge, then the wing tank brackets will be added. The brackets are like the floors but smaller and angled. Then comes the tank top plating and finally the hull frames can start to be added.
