1:200 RMS Titanic Build Video 14

[@woodysmodelworks3738]

Thanks Ben and Nora. I’m so pleased you like my efforts. I initially only created the forward grandstaircase because it can easily be seen. But the aft staircase not so much. However I have been asked to design some other areas so these could be in the pipeline. Yes PDF instructions will be available free on the website. Also don’t forget I will be soon be making it available the resin staircase and columns. My prototypes are on the way from shapeways.

[@edg1754]

Wow, one of the nicest photo etch sets I've ever seen. Can't wait to see it finished!

[@bernarddickinson9841]

Thanks very much Ben and Nora 👍😎

[@reaperofsouls7700]

Keep up the great work

[@jeffwilson2982]

The detail on that photo etch is outstanding. Absolutely incredible workmanship.

[@MrCarsdude]

Oh my gosh, more items I need for my kit, lol! I love Nora's enthusiasm.

[@Carlogarrido28]

You guys are amazing. Yours is gonna be definitely best Trumpeter Titanic.

[@slotselectagamblingchannel7452]

Ordered mine a few weeks ago. Can't wait to see them. They look amazing.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

That is very cool!!!!!!!!

[@Toppervision1]

Amazing is the right word. Anxious to see all of that put together. Wow.

[@perrylamb6286]

Um, Wow!?!? Not sure what else to say. Sad it will be covered up, but you'll know its there, and with good lighting... Second, LOVE the closing comments. Most are just informative, this time, SNOW. Love it!

[@jesserooker8690]

Ordered it as well! Worth every penny. Can't wait to get it

[@robertnicholls2316]

Great review, look forward to your build

[@pashamodelline530]

Очень красивый набор фототравления!!! У вас очень красивая модель будет!!! Успехов в строительстве модели!!!

[@toboldlygosmodelworks1973]

Nora looks stunned by the photo-etch, literally( either that or the paint fumes 😉😉). It's the curates egg of whether you open her up to show the PE (Just like Airfix's Shackleton's flight deck) or not. Me I'd be reaching for the dremel...

[@sci_tec]

Amazing Detail

[@Theonetotheleft]

A little correction. The pipe running under A-deck should not be hidden by the A-deck sides. Only the beams should be hidden behind. The way Elixander has done it is the correct way.

[@MrPellepat]

Bonjour ,pourrais tu me dire ou trouver des personnages au 1/200 pour habiller ma maquette Titanic ,une boutique en ligne ou autre ,Merci !

[@2H80vids]

You might have had more luck with a post in English.😁 If my night-school French from forty years ago still works, you're looking for a supplier(online, or otherwise) of 1:200 scale passengers for 𝑦𝑜𝑢𝑟 Titanic build. I can't help you myself but, if folks see the translation, someone will surely know.

[@barnyg6804]

Seeing all this has meWorking flat out too finish the Trumpeter Rodney, I'm really chomping at the Bit too get started on the Titanic build.

[@JeffDonahueScaleModeling]

Hi guys, that PE is really nice! I just had a thought, maybe kind of corny, but I was thinking how cool it would be to put a really small WIFI camera somewhere inside the ship so that you could pull up the interior on a cell phone or tablet to show people all the cool interiors you are adding. See you guys next time.

[@2H80vids]

That could be pretty cool and probably unique. Maybe a bit of a waste of a camera but, with what this kit is costing, probably one of the cheaper "extras".😁

[@dominicksoldano1532]

Ben, That will look incredible. Is there any way to make part of the decks removable so you can see all of the detail close up? I haven’t started mine yet but given this detail I’m toying with doing some spaces as a partial cut away. Maybe cut away on one side so that from the port side you see the complete superstructure but from the starboard side you see cut aways showing off full interior detail. Dominick

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

Hey Dominick, that’s what I would do for the “ultimate” model. Keep port side whole and open up the starboard side.

[@guylo88]

Even though all this detail is going to be covered you should deffinately photograph the interior details extensively and display them with the build. all that work should be appreciated even if it cant be seen.

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

That’s a really good idea!

[@2H80vids]

@@TheMidwestModelShop Great idea. Maybe frame up a few shots of the 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑙 interior, with pictures of the model interior alongside for comparison.

[@amosmayhugh9988]

You should check out Titanic Honor and Glory. There a upcoming Titanic game that features some of the most historical accurate interior recreations, and may help you figure out what colors you need for these areas

[@kenbtheman]

Really nice. Are you going to illuminate the interior/

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

Yes.

[@nicknicky1378]

Awesome!

[@duncani3095]

Love your content, the detailed modeling and the thought process with regard to non kit parts, and order of assembly. Also love the stories about the people on board the Titanic, courtesy of the Mrs. Would you consider building the USS Yorktown CV-5? Easily the best of the early war carriers. From it's excellent leadership, admiral Fletcher and captain Buckmaster, commanders Arnold and Pederson to the men flying and maintaining both the airplanes and the ship itself. Best wishes for 2022, stay safe.

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

The Yorktown or Enterprise are high on the list for “next”. Also the USS Fletcher destroyer. But in 1:200 scale IF Trumpeter is actually making it like my contact there claims they are doing.

[@duncani3095]

@@TheMidwestModelShop looking forward to it!

[@allenholt6614]

@@TheMidwestModelShop Enterprise would be great -- I have it sitting and waiting just so you will do it and help me make mine better! Wow -- didn't know about the Fletcher -- that would be incredible.

[@marinekreitschi9565]

Hello, could you tell me what tool you use to remove the doors and put the model ka doors in place please. Have a good day.

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

I just use a curved xacto blade.

[@marinekreitschi9565]

@@TheMidwestModelShop Thank you ;-)

[@154Colin]

I agree with Nora that it is a shame that once the ship is assembled the full mastery of Neal's ( sp?✌) attention to detail with be almost lost. 😟 Speaking of lost what happened to the Batmobile?

[@cordiscoscorner]

WOW....you should have done a "cutaway". I know it would cost A LOT more and take a ton of time but it would have been worth it...

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

I know! Right!? But here we are. Hopefully someone will say “that’s a good idea” and make a series out of it for everyone. The Model Boat Guy’s build is the closest thing to it. He’s done a great job with the interior of his build.

[@modelcarswithglen.]

Hi buddy, what's happening with Nora's batmobile??? hope she didn't give up,was really enjoying that series

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

It’s still happening. The holidays eat up a lot of spare time. Just keep your eyes out for it 😉

[@kenhorne5650]

1/2 model you can show it
