Excellent modelling

Sorry Kevin, they are not nice, but my best effort.
Etched brass in future, unless..............

I concur. Brilliant.

It would seem that the iceberg that the Titanic hit was between 50-100 ft high and 2-400 ft in length, that would be above water and the rest would be under water, this is 90% of the berg and the ship may have hit an underwater sour that broke 5 bulkheads.
So in 1:700, the iceberg would be 3cm high and 7cm long, mmmmmmmmmmmmmm.................

It looks like coloured marzipan at the moment.

I like marzipan icebergs!
I only had that colour of DAS opened and being of a Yorkshire nature I did not want to open a new pack!

Some rigging and funnel stays added.

Certainly a different diorama. Looks good Dave.

While on eBay looking for anything Falklands, I think I came across one of the ships I built in 2008/9. It is in the USA and I did sell quite a lot to the USA.
