Ok so I decided to have a go at modelling the Celebrity Infinity... want to see a non Azipod cruise ship so... (the real ship does have azimuths but i will change it to shaft and rudder propultion or i may make both one with azipods and one without...)

Nice progress!
I might be nit-picking here, but something about the bulb just doesn't look "right"...

What do you mean... i was proud of how well i got the bulb to look... mayby it isnt deep enough or somethin... i will look at some more reference pics and see what i can do to it... over and out.... do you think the hull on the Oasis looks better if so i will swap them over...

Also the hull i used on this model is the same hull used on the Mediteranea Model.... was hard enough to do that i just usesed it and tweeked it a little bit... I may attempt to make another hull later.... this one does have some defects in it right now...

also let me know if any of you want as a close up on a part of the ship...

I like the Costa model the most (Costa fan here!)

dtrford12 · « **Reply #11 on:** January 29, 2012, 20:47:39 »

Thanks guys... have been away over the weekend so i dont have much to show... well i did do a bit of repairs on the hull as i made some severe modelling errors on the back (had two extrusions overlapingeach other...)

any way glad to see that i am not the only person wanting a non azipod cruise ship... i remember when getting a ship like the vermas or the prige of rotterdam out of rotterdam was a challange as you only had one set of thrusters at the bow... they have taken the challange out of it....

i think the next thing ill take a go at is making the lifeboats and the launching mechanism... and have a bash at the bridge consoles... and the doors for the balconies...

Well i guess not... i can change aspects of the design to mak it my own... a teacher said to me once "if you change something by 30% then its yours, but i dont know how they measure it..."

I could change the funnel and other things if needed...

dtrford12 · « **Reply #16 on:** January 30, 2012, 13:06:30 »

Calling all cruisers... i am in need of reference photos if you have been on this ship or one of its sister ships please send or post them... i need photos of the minor details... they are hard to come across on the web...

Thanks...

dont know about that... there is also one for New York Harbour and Port Canaveral... their is a like on the site...

Also i have made the lifeboats and tender boats... will post pic soon...

EDIT: ok so im thinking of things to add... i was thinking of one of the big screens on the pool deck...

also if anybody has any blueprints or good photos from the side back and front of the vessel they would be a great help.... also i am in need of orthographic images of the lifeboats...

dtrford12 · « **Reply #20 on:** February 01, 2012, 22:43:40 »
