Beautiful ship. I sailed to Sydney and did cruises out into the Pacific Islands for 6 months. Great times
Thanks Jen.. I could have done better. Lucky you.. I build models but I have yet to take a cruise.
@@CaptainSmith23 I worked on her for 3 years...took her out from Southampton travelled around the med on 2 week cruises and after a couple of years we went from Southampton to do cruises out of Sydney. I was very lucky. The model looks great and I can tell you it was loved by the crew.
@@jeniferallan6693 Thanks Jen! I like to take a cruise on a liner... I've been aboard the RMS Queen Mary and wondered what it was like when she was in her prime and I've been aboard the Lane Victory... YOu sure were lucky.
As a young teenager in the 1960s I built one of these Revell models of Oriana ...she was a near-new ship in those days and called at my home city of Melbourne regularly. The model graced my parent's pianola along with models of the Canberra and United States too.
that cool! Oriana was a beautiful liner. Are you still in Melbourne.
I saw the Oriana and also the Canberra in Wellington NZ in the early 1960's. I am sure it had the yellow / gold funnel and Hull. I never sailed on it, so looking into it from the Wharf, it looked like a whole "other world" to this youngster. I still have a sweet spot for such ships.
Hi, yes my favourite ship, I cruised on her 3 times too in the 70's under the P&O flag. Built for speed she could leave many ships far behind. By today's standard she looks like a heavy battle cruiser but was much loved by many passengers. I have a large painting of her on my lounge wall right now. Truly miss this great ship, the last of her type.
Your model is pretty rare now, look after her! Regards JH UK ;-)
I sailed on this magnificent lady in 1983 and 1984.Oriana..First Lady of the sea,I'm just another child in your memory.
Lucky you Colin. She was an amazing liner!
Lucky you Colin. She was an amazing liner!
I did 3 trips on the Oriana as a 16/17 year old boy rating in the 1960's , she was a a beautiful ship, especially with
the beautiful golden colour hull. I had this model that I did n't ever build and mislaid it over the years, thanks for posting this Best Regards Rod in London January 2020
Rodney. You lucky guy, three trips.
@@CaptainSmith23 say @captainsmith23 have you ever tried building revells SS Brasil it's still available in the modeling market.
@@colegensch787 Sorry for the late reply.. No, I have tried the Brasil, but I would like to.. at the moment I am into Die Cast Models.
@@CaptainSmith23 it also seems very easy to build to .
@@CaptainSmith23 and it has 2 pools to I filled my SS Brazil's pools with realistic water effects in a bottle and it worked perfectly to.
I worked in the lookout bar
Wow! that is cool. was she a massive ship? was the ship amazing on the inside?
hi CaptainSmith23,,she was awesome ,a massive ship,,loved it ,,was on it from 1980 to the very last cruise,,i went to see it tied up in Japan,,,
Aren't you the lucky one. You did some six years on the ship, that's amazing. From the pictures I see of her, she looked massive!
@@CaptainSmith23 For her time she was a large ship at 42,000 tons. Very spacious deck space and had a special court cabin arrangement on one deck.
This was an initiative design allowing passengers in inside cabins to have a sea view. A well respected ship when she arrived anywhere. ;-)
@@johnnyhollis9977 42,000 tons. she was as heavy as Titanic. Oriana was a great looking ship.
There was a mosaic dragon on the bottom of the first class swimming pool.
I didn't know that. thanks for the info. did you travel on this ship?
@@CaptainSmith23 Yes, I did. I crossed the Pacific in April of 1962. From Sydney to Los Angeles. It took a month.
@@maupinmaupin1472 that's great! I've yet to travel on an ocean liner but it's in the works. Luck you, the Oriana was such a great looking liner.
That would be hard to find!, i don't think they still make that kit!
amazon.
You are making me jealous cap some of these kits you build don’t seem to come to Australia but as usual you have done a great job .
Mark. thank you mate. Hope all is well in Australia? I messed up a little on this model.
Guten Tag, Captain Smith! ;-)
Finally, there you are - I was already wondering where you ´ve been. XD
Wonderful preview of the S.S. Oriana - and beautifully built, the model! ;-)
Guten tag, Captain charty. es tut mir leid aber ich habe zu viel arbeit. Wie geht's es dir? thank you captain charty for your comment. this model was a little difficult because some pieces didn't line up but none the less I like the way it looks.
I bought a river boat and thought that it would be small and I was surprised that it is a big model '' Robert E Lee '' so it will me my first try at a river boat. Can't wait to start working on it. maybe next week I'll start.
Hey Captain Smith, wie geht´s?
Don´t worry, I didn´t forget about the river boat. ;-)
I think it is an interesting project and I really like river boats like the "Robert E. Lee." I had a river boat called "Mississippi Queen" by Revell once but unfortunately it got broken. ;-(
So, I´m looking forward to take a look at your project, too.
Have you already started to build it?
Have a nice day! ;-)
ahhahaha Hi Captain Charty.
Just finished the Robt E Lee. "Mississippi Queen" by Revell looks exactly like the one I built, very cool. Maybe I'll try the Delta Queen next.
That must be about 60 yes old!
This is one model which I don't have. But I remember hitch-hiking all day 600km as a teenager to Melbourne and sleeping under the pier just to see this ship in January 1969.
I note that you said the "ORIANA" hull was "Yellow" at some stage. I hope you don't mind if I correct you on that colour. ORIANA was NEVER PAINTED YELLOW. A little bit of history on the Oriana and all other ships which names started with the letter "O" Oriana, Orsova, Oronsay, Orcades and all other "O" BOATS as they were known were ships of the ORIENT STEAM NAVIGATION LINE, which was an British Company At that time (in the late 1950s to mid 19760s) all Orient Line Ships were painted with a CORN COLOURED HULL. AT the water line, the paint was a band of GREEN, and below the GREEN BAND the hull below the waterline was RED. Each of the "O" BOATS had a WHITE COLOURED SUPERSTRUCTURE, and a CORN COLOURED FUNNEL. The Three sister ships; ORCADES, ORONSAY & ORSOVA had a BLACK WELSH BONNET on the top of the funnel. Only those three ships were fitted with the WELSH BONNET. ORIANA which went into service in 1960 was also painted in CLASSIC ORIENT LINE COLOURS. IN 1960, THE ORIENT STEAM NAVIGATION LINE AND THE PENINSULA & ORIENT LINE (KNOWN AS P & O) merged . At this initial stage, the Peninsula & Orient Line and the Orient Steam Navigation Line (Both British Lines) ships maintained their respective colours. The P&O Ships were all painted white with a CORN COLOURED FUNNEL.
P&O and Orient Line were formally merged in 1960 to form P&O & Orient Lines. In 1964, Orcades and Oronsay were transferred to the P&O fleet. The name Orient Line was dropped altogether in 1966 when Orsova and Oriana were also transferred to the P&O fleet.
Following the merger, all ships of the now P & O Line was painTed all WHITE HULL AND WHITE SUPERSTRUCTURE. Only the Funnels on all P & O Ships were painted in the CORN COLOUR. ORIANA was also painted all white post 1966. I hope that helps you when it comes to the paint chart for your model. I wonder if I can buy a model of ORIANA and ORONSAY if they are still available. Cheers mate.
I liked the ship but sadly idid not went
Great build
Thank you Suolakala.
It sad that the ship was scrapped
unser urlaub war schön, in Sardinien beautyful nice Peter
Very good Peter.
like your vid, just got one of these models from ebay , but plan to fit it with led lighting interior and exterior , as I think it will look fantastic at night. I,m sure all the internal white plastic will have to be painted black to stop light leakage also some interior decks and particions etc and a route for all the wires to come out in the bottom of the hull section any other ideas ? Ian H,
You might want to spray paint the decking because brushing shows up when lite at night.
Thanks for that info. another question how did you highlight the 'Oriana' name getting a nice neat finish? I am not starting this kit till after christmas so I'm getting a few ideas together on the lighting. I.H.
Hello Firefox. the name highlight, Red marker. You're welcome. Sorry for the late reply.
Hallo Captain Smith 23, sehr schön gut job, in hoffe es geht dir gut, gruss Peter

@@davidjosullivan9174 try ScaleMates saw one there.. Ebay has one for $62.00
Where are you from? I have one but i've got so manny models to work on,i think i will pass this one
You didn't paint the rudder.
Toured the Oriana and Canberra in San Pedro many years ago, beautiful ships.
Strange that you painted the hull before assembling the two halfs, you missed the opportunity to blend the seams.
Hi Dave.. When were these ship in San Pedro?
Oriana.and.canvera.p&o

Hello Joseph! I don't remember the name.
