Titanic

I've been working to finish the Titanic by the 15th of April for obvious reasons. I've managed to complete the under decks on both the bow and stern sections. These had to be crafted out of plasticard as the model was only made for the intact ship, so it is missing all the guts. To do these pieces, I cut out  pieces of plasticard that fit the shape of the hull. I made a total of 3 decks worth of visible card. This is to simulate the fact that a few of the decks remain crushed beneath the visible ones. Below are the bow sections of the deck.



I added rubble detail to the decking because parts of each level are visible through the cracks in the hull and each of the containment shafts. I want this model to have several view points so that people can actually look inside and enjoy the detail. In keeping to the true nature of each shaft, They all descend to different levels of the deck, as they would have on the actual ship. from the side cracks, one can get a view inside the wreck.
