It took about 7 years longer than I had hoped, but the model is finally finished. Here are some quick pictures. I hope to get some better pictures once I get my photo gear set up.
The last parts to go on were the two masts and the rigging. I'm pretty happy with the finished results. Of course there are a few things I would do differently if I had to do it again.
So this is the RMS Queen Mary as she appeared earlier in her career. Now I will start on building a display case for the model and I'll try to post that as well.
Hey Scott, what scale is the Queen, and who makes the kit? I am working on a Revell 1:570 at the moment which seems to have a lot less detail than your one. Love what you have done. By the way, depending on what the finished size of your QM is, Displays to Go have a beautiful simple display case perfect for these kinds of ships. I have my SS United States set up in one and it looks amazing.
