Lower decks

I continued with the fine details on the lower decks and besides the cranes and the life boats I’m just about finished on these decks.
I'm not sure how to bend the railing in shape in one piece without losing the "straight lines" and the sharp edges, so I cheated by "cutting" them in the 90 degree corners and soldier them together afterwards

"rusty look"



After the "shiny" look, here's the "rusty" look.
I might have overdone it a bit, but after having looked at it for a while it actually starts to appeal to me..

In theory she’s ready to sail now..

At this stage the rudders and the engines, propellers and shafts are in place.
I added some visual details on the rudders and the only thing left on the hull is to get rid of the "shiny surface"..

Bow with details

I continued with some fine detailing on the upper deck and finished it, only thing remaining is the mast and crane.
I'm really satisfied with the result so far..
