Thanks Chris!

You must have one hell of a collection!

Indeed, at the time (1916-15) the ship had an occre red linoleum deck, for the nature of the tint is of course subject to various interpretations at a time when color photography was in its infancy.

This coating was quickly abandoned during WW1, as it was deemed too flammable, and the steel decks were painted.

Paris green (Schweinfurter Gr�n) was also phased out in 1918, I believe, as it was too dangerous for painters' health.

It's hard to know exactly what shades of blue-grey were used, but in 1915, they were quite dark.

Pascal,

Looks like someone on FB is using your images as his own.

Tks for your report Martin and Jim (By mail) .

Actually, this is the second time in recent weeks that some clever clogs has used my photos to scam people on Facebook. I reported the first one to Facebook, who deleted the message, but the one you mentioned had already been deleted before I could do anything about it.

Reported by Jim in June...

I had immediately reported the post, then messaged an admin directly, with a link to this build log. Glad they took it down.

People suck.

A few 3D renders of the complete ship—something I hadn't been able to do until now, given the sheer size of the 3D project and the limitations of my old Mac.

I was finally able to integrate the ship's boats, as well as the completed rudder. The boats and the rudder were kept in separate files—the only way to continue working on the ship's design without overwhelming my old Mac.

The new Mac Pro handled it all with ease.

These images represent the culmination of several hundred hours of design work. 😅

That's not bad!

ChatGPT (AI) did a good job with the staging... Just for fun.

It works.

Okay, just one more, let’s not overdo it, a shot I really like of battleships in general.
