If you have been researching for 55 years then you know that many of the old injection molded plastic kits from the 1960's and 70s had a lot more detail than these, or maybe building model kits has never been your thing. To a real modeler, these are all stone basic.
@@drewburt4315 yes but for something that came out of a machine you can buy and run from your home they are pretty damn impressive. I had a model of RMS Titanic growing up and she was reasonably accurate but by no means perfect. A lot of the great liners were extremely difficult to get when I was young in the 70s and 80s.
Wow it was so cool to see the empress of Ireland as my birth grandfather and his parents came to Canada on that ship and settled in Richmond BC, and I later on found out my Adopted grandparents also came to Canada on that ship in 1912. Settled in Montreal.QC. Great video thanks.

Do you have a model of the Olympic during her service in 1918 with the deck guns and additional lifeboats? Her brilliant dazzle pattern is so striking and unique.
You need to add the Andrea Doria My Father Was On That Liner When he came from Italy to America 2 years before it sank of Nantucket. Definitely a shipwreck that is famous and needs to be in your fleet. 👍🏼
They weren't the 1st of this type, look up the kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse, kronzprinz Wilhelm and kaiser Wilhelm 2. They were the 1st 4 funnel ocean liners
I read that you would like to add to the fleet the SS Normandie, I believe that it would be a great addition not only because of the distinctive design and his fame but also because it would really be great having it near the queen mary, the two great rivals, and also two icons of a century.
These are incredible models, and I'm impressed with the fact that you actually researched physical differences within the classes of ships. I would like to see Olympic as it appeared in WWI, and as she appeared after the sinking of Titanic (with a full row of davits). There are only two mistakes that I could spot. 1 - HMHS Britannic did not have a rear well deck and 2 - The Edmund Fitzgerald was American, not Canadian.
@@HistoricalOceanLiners According to the image I found of the Britannic, the rear well deck was covered, as was the poop deck. m.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/northern-ireland/78606/35231249.ece/AUTOCROP/w620/2016-11-21_new_26494900_I1.JPG But honestly, only real Olympic class rivet counters get that one right. And you did correctly adjust the B deck promenade on the RMS Olympic.
You must mean the temporary fabric covers that you can see in some of the pictures. Of course, I didn't model them, because something like that is difficult to print.
@@michaelbujaki2462 the fact the rear well deck and the poop deck were covered actually gives the same shape as the other olympic class (stern one deck higher than the well deck). What you are talking about is represented here, the well deck is covered (you can see the opening below the deck, thats it), as well as the poop deck.
Why is Fitzgersld on this list? Fitzgerald was a Great Lakes Ore vessel. To clarify, she never saw salt water, & she never had passengers aboard, her story is not like the Titanic's or Bismarck's. She sank to a gale during a clipper (for those not in the US or Canada, a snowstorm that formed off of Lake Michigan (I believe I'm tornado trained, not cold trained), not an ice berg, or scuttling.
By Nords words, you forgotten some crucial ladies. The Lady Ships. Two of four or five survived ww2. The Lady Rodney & The Lady Nelson were also alongside Queen Mary nicknamed Bride ships because soldiers would bring back their new wife home to Canada. I'm guessing same for the US. The other ships I believe were named Lady Somers, Lady Drake and Lady Hawkins. Unfortunately they couldn't avoid the Uboats torpedoes. These 5 liners were often sailing to the Caribbeans. The last I recall of the 2 surviving vessels were sold to Egypt in the 50s. My father was born in New Brunswick and volunteered at 16 or 17 years old, meaning he'd forge the documents in order to assist the crew of Lady Rodney. He started when the allies started to cross overseas and stayed on after the war til late 40s or early 50s. Just search these names of the ladies and find other cool facts like logs, postcards and more. There you have it. Thought I'd share what I know of them.lol
Interesting video. I assume the all-white ships are where you can't be sure of the colour scheme? And sadly I couldn't read all of the labels even when expanded.
Thanks, I don't know yet, as it would require a completely new construction of the model. I really try to give my patreons a great value for the great support :) like a very detailed Titanic :)

While firefighters we're pouring an immense amount of water on it, the S.S. NORMANDIE rolled over, to the starboard side, and sunk at dock.

I never knew there were a lot of 4-smoke stack ships that look similar to the Titanic. I only know of one, the Olympic which was it's sister ship.
Also HMHS Britannic, Titanic's other sister ship
