The Ship Model Forum

I have started yet ANOTHER project. I know, I know, I have a billion other models that will probably never be finished but that isn't the point right now.

I was sitting in my room thinking about how to start a scratch-built diorama since I had the idea in my head for some time. I really didn't want to have to build a hull and then it hit me; I had a medium size kit of the Cutty Sark that was missing some pieces but the hull pieces was all there. I realized that if my diorama was of a sinking ship no one would really be able to tell that the hull was a sailing ship since the stern is similar to a stern from a late 1800's ship. And so here is my progress so far:

This is going to be cool!

The Love Love was built to look as if it is sinking

French artist Julien Berthier has designed a fully functional boat to look as if it is sinking.

The 6.5m yacht was cut in half with a new keel and motor added so it remains in the sinking position while being fully functional.

He describes it as "the permanent and mobile image of a wrecked ship that has become a functional and safe leisure object."

The "sinking" yacht is one of the coolest things I've seen in a long time! I want one, bad.

I wonder how many calls the Harbor police get about a sinking vessel??

Any luck on viewing those pictures tony??
