  3. This project may be off to a slow start but I assure you, not a day passes by that I am not looking into this ship and seeing if there is anything I am missing, anything that needs to be tweaked before I begin the build, and if there was a large design change from Boheme and her sisters

  6. Hello everyone!

     

    I know I have been gone for a LONG time, but I am back and working with sheer and with NEW PROJECTS! But this topic is about the United Class 2.0, a upgrade from the United Queen, if you guys remember her, and this model has sheer and more realistic features.

    Cruising Livery Version (United Cruise Line)

    What do you guys think? What can be improved? What should be added? But remember they are 21st century ships, just an Ocean Liner appeal.
