Hi Matt,

 

Fairly new on the boards and have just noticed your thread pop up.

 

You're a very talented man with what must be incredible patience.

 

When it's finished you'll have to travel Australia to show it off to us CC's.

 

Do you have a planned completion date?

 

Cheers

Marg

hi you can buy the plans here http://www.anb-online.org/articolo.php?sez=21&sz=853&nm=crown_princess_e_regal_princess

 

scale 1/250 scale,i got my plans direct from princess cruises in year 2000,i don't think p&o or princess will give them out now.even if i did sell the model the time and work put in to it,it would be expensive to buy.so far at least $600 has gone into it for hours and parts so far its 60-65%finished,cheers matt

The stitched close up might help with some detail on your model, but webshots shrinks it to 2400 pixels wide.

Do you want me to email you the full size one (I have your address)?
