What an amazing model--and a VERY talented model maker. How big is the liner? and are you going to fit it with R.C.?

Bobso - from the quoted scale I calculate it should be a little bit over 5 feet long and about 6½ inches wide?

Hello Peter--thanks for replying to my earlier post regarding the size of the QE2 you are building. Blimey--that is a HUGE model--hope you have room to display it so it can be admired by everyone. Do you intend to light it up?

Is this model finished yet?  If so, post some photos so we can enjoy!

Only just come across this thread in the forum.

Respect!

To produce that using pictures and no scale plans is quite something.

I note where your workshop is located - I wouldn't be allowed to do that in our house!  :)

I'm curious, was this model ever completed and if so, are there any available pics?

I've just revisited this model build and it's fantastic. I am curious too as to how it finished up. Having just built the funnel at 1:96 scale and only just being comfortable with the result, I am even more impressed by this model. Matdark has done a beautiful job, but where is it up to?
