SS Melanie II

<< < (18/19) > >>

FJF:
Thanks for the hint, Joe. This is actually going to be my first 2.4 GHz controlled model. So I will have both ways to place them. That's good. Once the model is watertight I will try inside and outside to check if there is any notable difference in regards to signal reception.

FJF:
Hello all,
The latest update includes the steering chains, rods, pulleys and bullwark stanchions.
I used pieces of 1mm u-profile for the chain channels.
Regards,
Frank

FJF:
Hi,
In this update I added some supports on the bridge as well replaced the copper shrouds with coated steel cables (0.5 mm). I soldered the ends of the cables after having wraped them with brass wire.

Hi,
Eventhough not completely finished my SS Melanie II recently made its maiden voyage.
See a little video here:

English version will follow sometime soon.
Hope you enjoy.

Very nice model and video.  Merchant ships do look good, if done properly and not run like speed boats. 
I hope to post photos of my tribal soon.
Francine
