Hi Matt

She is looking amazing! Your work is incredible! (You'll have to start sussing out plans for the Pacific Pearl seeing as how the Jewel is identical to the Dawn). Can't wait to see it finished.

hi,

 

the jewel is the same as pacific dawn,as the plans i have are crown princess...when they were built they were both sister ships..as ocean village cruise line has the jewel now the pool deck lido deck has changed i don't have plans for that, but found photos on the net will work,that's a idea i can change the dawn into the jewel?????pasta never liked it...sorry karmac...pacific pearl plans might be hard to get a p&o don't give them out unless there is a insider here...

Wow Matt it looks fantastic!!

 

It almost looks as if you are looking at Pacific Dawn itself!!!

 

A new home? Do you sell your models?

 

Perhaps you could even take a framed photo of your model with you on your cruise and maybe you could have it signed by the captain?

 

Looking forward to more photos :)

thans,

 

i have sold 2 but that was back home in nz,if i did sell it it would only be for building materials and things i have brought for the model,i don't know how many hours i have put in but you can track it from the start of this post maybe 10-15 hours a week,and i have just found out i can get plans for pacific star,when p&o had the ship.

hello,

 

i want a vote,

 

sun princes model or a model of grand princess class?

 

as i have plans for sun princess,and princess cruises were kind enough to send me plans for the grand class ships today from the usa,upon seeing the p/d model.

 

cheers matt

the p/d was built at the same yard as sun princess and grand princess also,p/d would be first generation,sun princess class second generation and grand class 3rd generation.some links.

Personaly Matt I think its your choice,as you are the builder.

My choice would be the Sun Princess .

Keep up the great work.
