So Diamant, what do you think of the ship?

firestar12 · « **Reply #26 on:** May 16, 2009, 22:04:29 »

Yeah...I love how I could probably give her full interior without having 99999999999999 polys. Would you like to see her in ShipSim after Volgo Balt is done? (I always have two projects going at once)

firestar12 · « **Reply #27 on:** May 24, 2009, 22:49:38 »

Oh my god guys, guess what! I am going on that ship tomorrow! I will be sure to take plenty of pics. (Well, I think I am going on it tomorrow, my parents kinda hinted towards it) I will also try to meet the captain and find out about any copyright issues.

Ok, if I can get access to her engine room. But yeah, I will take tons of shots. also, her hull should not be too hard to model, it looks pretty simple.

I'm happy to hear that you can get to the ship, but you got to buy that bike to me now, since you get to enter the ship.

firestar12 · « **Reply #30 on:** May 25, 2009, 13:59:58 »

No, I took control of your computer for a reason Minime. Remember that? That was so you would never get the bike.

Minime · « **Reply #31 on:** May 25, 2009, 14:02:16 »

I knew it, get on MSN so I can get revenge and to stay a bit on topic, good luck

Or so I can send you that image again?!

(joking...)
EDIT: I went on the ship today, it was VERY fun and I got to meet the captain and go up in the wheelhouse! Let me tell you, I think you guys would love her wheelhouse. It kinda reminds me of a mix of Hercules Atlas and PoR's bridge. I will be posting tons of pictures later. It was VERY windy later in the cruise. In fact, the tables on the deck were blowing across the room. The security officer had to come out on the bow and get rid of all the tables and chairs because it was a risk. I did get a somewhat good picture of the fire escape route. Which included every deck. Yet another edit: I got some good stern shots. I have 71 pictures. Here are the first of many.

More pictures...

firestar12 · « **Reply #34 on:** May 25, 2009, 22:14:47 »

Even more

:X At that last pic.
I will post some more later tonight.

Minime · « **Reply #35 on:** May 25, 2009, 23:30:45 »

nice pics, when can we see the bridge shots? Did you get access to the engine room?

firestar12 · « **Reply #36 on:** May 27, 2009, 00:16:14 »

No, I did not unfortunately. I did notice though, she leaves a very nice wake. Two proper.

firestar12 · « **Reply #37 on:** May 27, 2009, 00:22:49 »

More...

firestar12 · « **Reply #38 on:** May 27, 2009, 00:34:18 »

Even more

firestar12 · « **Reply #39 on:** May 27, 2009, 00:41:27 »

Yet again...

firestar12 · « **Reply #40 on:** May 27, 2009, 00:49:39 »

Some pictures of her wake.

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #41 on:** May 27, 2009, 14:39:04 »

Some nice shots. She looks a lovely vessel

firestar12 · « **Reply #42 on:** May 27, 2009, 19:49:51 »

Because I very much like the Dutch!

Are you sure you replied in the right topic? I don't see any connection

firestar12 · « **Reply #44 on:** May 28, 2009, 00:23:38 »

Yes, Siso7 had asked me why. He must have removed the post.

Firestar · « **Reply #45 on:** December 21, 2009, 21:43:38 »

I've got direct contact information of the owner of this vessel, I'll call him later tonight and discuss things with him.

Firestar · « **Reply #46 on:** December 21, 2009, 21:57:53 »

EDIT:
I've contacted the owner over the telephone, and he does appear to be interested. He says he is able to redirect me to those who have blueprints, and he is also able to provide me with the sea trials report. It does appear he will give me permission, but I don't want to promise anything at the moment. I'm really excited!!
