Hello to all, a few months ago I started this build already on MSW.
After 4 ships out of the box (kit) it was about time to build a ship from scratch. I decided to build the Creole Queen riverboat, a commercial paddlesteamer from New Orleans. On a scale of 1/82 the total length will be about 85 cm. I ordered some plans from Dumas for their RC-kit and started to draw my own plans. I will take a lot of time for this build.
The original:
Dumas drawings, nice but not for the hull
Making my own drawings:
Keel:
Nice playing with 'Lego':
Frames:
