I can only admire how many work you put into that and how well it looks ... I love the shot at 6:25, it looks just incredibly real. I can only hide myself with my crappy 3D models :D I so damn look forward to the game as a whole
I can only imagine and admire the total dedication, talent, effort, and time that has went into creating such an amazing piece of art. The curvature and realism is absolutely breathtaking. You don't always see that aspect of realism on other 3d model ships. Kyle, you are an inspiration
Amazing work from Kyle :D been following his work since his models for the simulator Virtual Sailor back in 2011, really happy to see he made part of Titanic Honor & Glory team. Congratulations, keep up the great work :D
I've had to create plan-accurate 3D models of mechanical objects to a high degree of accuracy before, but nothing of this scale. The amount of work, dedication, and effort put into this is absolutely commendable. Carry on, sir.
I'm sure your team probably know this but if not, I'm going to mention it regardless. Im trying to pass this along in hopes someone sees this. On RUclips I have seen a video called "making Titanic's clock", and at the 8:25 mark of the video he made a discovery about the sphere under honours foot. He believes it was more than a simple sphere. He believes it was a globe and judging by his description of the atlas lines, marks, & archive photos, he might be right. Check it out, and get it modeled in the game if true :) Love all the hard work all of you on the team do on the exterior and interior every day.
I rather tend to think that prior to this video's _"discovery"_ about the spherical ball found beneath the foot of one of the two figure carvings of Titanic's iconic _Honor & Glory Crowning Time_ clock was indeed known to be the representation of a World Globe. I mean we can immediately eliminate the possibility that the Classic Greek inspired sea nymphs depicted in the clock were actually kicking around a soccer or _futbol_ or whatever they're calling that dreadful sport by this year. Anywho...it's all very interesting to say the least!
Simply phenomenal digital work, Kyle! Your recreation of Titanic is, in effect, titanic in all aspects! You have succeeded in making her 'practically unsinkable!' I only wish that I knew how to do something this astonishingly detailed!
I've been waiting for a video featuring the modeling of the hull performed by your team. I've been attempting to model the Titanic, as well, and your work is very inspiring. Thank you!
Just gobsmacked when he said that demo 3 isn’t even the best model, and that is bloody amazing! This is going to be the best game/experience of the century!
Hey kyle!!!! Been a long time, but we went to school together. A conversation came up at work about the Titanic, and You instantly came to mind. I told my boss that I used to know someone who could draw it vividly from scratch (not just doodles, but masterpieces). And here you are after a quick google. Looks AMAZING, man. Glad to see you're still keeping it up!
So amazing to see the improvements from the virtual sailor model to the Honor and Glory model, so hard to wrap my head around that Kyle has pretty much made the perfect copy of Titanic all by himself, can’t wait to play the game!
Must have seemed like an endless slog at times, but we appreciate your amazing efforts Kyle. The end result, and indeed the intermediate results so far, are mind blowing! Fantastic job by all you guys.
Absolutely gorgeous work. Such attention to detail. Thank-you so much for sharing the process. I knew that it wasn't easy, but the results speak for themselves! Beautiful!
Quite honestly I will be purchasing the game purely for the ability to have unparalleled access to the finest detail possible the game will provide, though I"m sure the game will be fun and interesting as well.
_finneeey Yeah you're gonna want something better. Even my 970 SSC was having a hard time with Max settings on demo 3. Edit: Im speaking of playing in VR.
You will probably have to play on lower settings. But it's hard to say when the game has no other mechanics until they finish the mapping area. I played demo 3.0 on a 1080TI with no surprise to me on high settings at 60 fps with no issues.
Cool video! I enjoy seeing how games are made and I am so excited for when it will come out! Also I had a substitute teacher today who looked like Tom Lynskey
Great work guys! I Am very excited to see some new updates from THG... Cannot wait to purchase this experience once it is available! Keep up the good work guys!!
This guy is a great modeller! I have several of his Virtual Sailor ships, and they are fun, but this must require a lot of work. He's just as good at 3D modelling as that Catholic priest is at cutaway scale models.
I bow to your awesomeness! I find all this so overwhelmingly awesome that I could spontaneously combust into anti-matter or something equally as epic. Too cool!
Based on his poster in the background, I'd say if this man can build in Minecraft, then it's only a matter of time before the Titanic hull is complete and looking amazing.
i know that you guys are putting easter eggs in both the ship and the passengers from both other games like adventure out of time etc. if im allowed to get a sneak peak into other eatser eggs will there be any from the Cameron Movie or a night to remember? will you have the coal bunker fire in the game? i would love to know something! but i know you guys are mysterious about the game and i seriously cant wait for the final release!
Are you also including the feature that the water inside the ship is on a lower level, for example that you can see a porthole the water rising outside while its completely dry on your deck?
Realisticly speaking , they most likely will be animating the water rather than applying real time aqua physics. Computers are not ready for that amount of load yet. adding real time water physics on top of the already demanding UE4 enviroment would require power equivilent of NASA's computer. Take for example Nvidia's PhysX demo , a program simulating water that needs full gaming pc's resurces just for a small compartment like a bucket of water. Now imagine that in a full scale titanic model Of course that's not bad news either, as you can animate water inside the ship as you please , that means water in different levels of the ship being higher or lower than others, without the hustle of the water physics box . That also results as a better recreation overall, as devs have full controll of the situation in the game . Physics in games can be glitchy sometimes. I cant imagine the work they have to put so water particles dont glitch out in such a big model
I'm making the hull plating currently. Im nearly 80% done. It is excruciatingly tedious and repetitive with changing angles. I am aware that there are some mistakes in my model. Due to a combination of my silly errors which i didn't notice or think would snowball as i progressed, and also because i can't afford to buy original plans at the moment. I wish i saw this video before i started. But im willing to redo it because the ship deserves the respect.
60.000 Rivets? I hope unwrapping was done as a first step to the single rivet model and not last, after it was cloned 60.000 times and then arranged. .-) Amazing Work on the Research and Execution!
Very nice video. Just too short :) I thought you would use Normal and displacement maps to get the polycount down. It look beautiful amazing! Love to work in maya too. What did you use for texturing? Looking forward to see more :) Keep you the good work to all of you :D
Good day! I really like your project, as well as the history of the Titanic. I see your efforts to create this legendary ship. I am engaged in ship modeling, and the game shell. I created several marine tugboats, dry cargo ship, two floating cranes. All models are made in the highest detail. I created several models of diesel engines, one of them completely with all the internal parts. By the way, my main specialization is a marine engineer in the mechanical part. Write to me if I, as an expert, are interested in you, I have something to show you. I would be interested in participating in the creation of a Titanic power plant. GOOD LUCK!
Did 3D modelling years ago but quit. Got an assigment recently to get back into the saddle. After watching this I think will change my profession to rose breeding or something.
Curious question, for tge cad plans did you happen to use the robert hahn plans or bob reads, i know you cabt purchase reads plans anymore just curious. Also how much consulting did you guys do with Bruce Beveridge as im sure his book is among the many used in the making of this model. Wonderful work! It will be the model to end all models. So many more questions but that was the most prevalent in my opinion.
I wish you folks to work heavily on optimization, will be sad if I need a Top High end pc to run that since mine is fairly far from it, great work either way, I'm rather less experient but i work a bit with 3d modeling and i know how tedious the UVmapping process can be XD
That's my boy! Well done buddy :D
Spammals i agree
Spammals oh and by the way your a amazing youtuber
spaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmmmaaaaaaaaalllllllllsssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wait spammals watches this channel and knows this guy and hope your ship dose not sink
Man... Its going to be so lit! Damn
I can only admire how many work you put into that and how well it looks ... I love the shot at 6:25, it looks just incredibly real. I can only hide myself with my crappy 3D models :D
I so damn look forward to the game as a whole
I find this project truly amazing. I’m sure it will make worldwide news when completed.
I can only imagine and admire the total dedication, talent, effort, and time that has went into creating such an amazing piece of art. The curvature and realism is absolutely breathtaking. You don't always see that aspect of realism on other 3d model ships.
Kyle, you are an inspiration
You basically rebuilt the Titanic again by yourself lol nice job man very sweet!
I love how Mr. Hudak’s Titanic model has such great detail compares to other models, splendid!
Amazing work from Kyle :D been following his work since his models for the simulator Virtual Sailor back in 2011, really happy to see he made part of Titanic Honor & Glory team. Congratulations, keep up the great work :D
He had those old models of the Lusitania and Poseidon (from the movie) too
Indeed, still think they are one of the best on those games. He and the team of Honor and Glory make a great work on Titanic legacy and history.
I litteraly can't wait, Im so exicted!!
StrongQuartz LIVE i feel your pain😨
I know, I just wish they would do some work on the landmarks of Titanic alongside the ship just to get some extra work done.
Kyle you're doing a great job with all the exterior stuff you guys are awesome keep up the fantastic work.
I've had to create plan-accurate 3D models of mechanical objects to a high degree of accuracy before, but nothing of this scale. The amount of work, dedication, and effort put into this is absolutely commendable. Carry on, sir.
I model ships myself so I know what a massive pain the hulls are... but this is a whole new level haha
Absolutely stunning, hats off to you, Kyle.
I'm sure your team probably know this but if not, I'm going to mention it regardless. Im trying to pass this along in hopes someone sees this.

I only wish that I knew how to do something this astonishingly detailed!
I just want to say:
OH MY GOD!
Titanic inspired me to become a Architect and your work is trully inspiring. Can't wait for the full game!
As a amateur 3D Modeler, I am very impressed and give you respect, your Model is fantastic, you are my 3D Modeler inspiration
lets remember that Kyle started with Virtual Sailor
And actually he did an amazing job even back then!
Oh my god I remember those vids! This is the same guy?! You just blew my mind dude.
I have always dreamed of playing a game like this. I am absolutely so excited to see the final product.
Didn't expect to see you here
What a beautiful and painstakingly crafted model. Hats off to you, sir.
I've been waiting for a video featuring the modeling of the hull performed by your team. I've been attempting to model the Titanic, as well, and your work is very inspiring. Thank you!
Looks like you imported the real hull into the unreal engine
Just gobsmacked when he said that demo 3 isn’t even the best model, and that is bloody amazing! This is going to be the best game/experience of the century!
This video serves as good reference for a model I'm making. Thanks for displaying the wireframe and closeups of the portholes!
Hey kyle!!!! Been a long time, but we went to school together. A conversation came up at work about the Titanic, and You instantly came to mind. I told my boss that I used to know someone who could draw it vividly from scratch (not just doodles, but masterpieces). And here you are after a quick google. Looks AMAZING, man. Glad to see you're still keeping it up!
Kyle here is a boss.
Great work! Can't wait to see the final version of the hull.
(Irritated voice) "One... by... one..."
As a person who has to engage in tedium in my work, I hear you.
So amazing to see the improvements from the virtual sailor model to the Honor and Glory model, so hard to wrap my head around that Kyle has pretty much made the perfect copy of Titanic all by himself, can’t wait to play the game!
it looks absolutely amazing
Inspirational work. Truly stunning.
It’s amazing! I use kyles titanic model in virtual sailor! And it’s amazing to see it in a game!
I loved this, neat to learn the behind the scenes of the design process
That is an incredibly impressive beast you have crafted sir!
Love all these videos! Well done guys
Fantastic job, my friend! I'm so excited!
Must have seemed like an endless slog at times, but we appreciate your amazing efforts Kyle. The end result, and indeed the intermediate results so far, are mind blowing! Fantastic job by all you guys.
Very nicely done! I'd love to hear more frequently from Kyle.
thanks for having unbelievable dedication to this project
Absolutely gorgeous work. Such attention to detail. Thank-you so much for sharing the process. I knew that it wasn't easy, but the results speak for themselves! Beautiful!
Just one dude working on the entire hull! Great dedication, keep it up and well done so far.
The more stuff I see you guys do the more excited I become. Can not wait to walk those Decks.
Kyle I have a lot of childhood memories playing your Virtual Sailor model of the ship. Kudos :)
Kyle your work is extraordinary, you have done an incredible job on this model!
Can't wait to see the final product!
We all appreciate the time and effort Kyle! Keep It up looks perfect!
Quite honestly I will be purchasing the game purely for the ability to have unparalleled access to the finest detail possible the game will provide, though I"m sure the game will be fun and interesting as well.
I’m not sure how they could make the exterior model better at this point.
Great job, Kyle!!!
Great work Kyle!!! Truly some amazing talent you have
I am scared that my PC with a GTX 750ti oc will explode as soon as I’m starting the game :(
_finneeey Yeah you're gonna want something better. Even my 970 SSC was having a hard time with Max settings on demo 3.
Edit: Im speaking of playing in VR.
Nathan Brown In VR or flatscreen?
_finneeey my pc doesn’t even exist soooo...
No explosions for me!
You will probably have to play on lower settings. But it's hard to say when the game has no other mechanics until they finish the mapping area. I played demo 3.0 on a 1080TI with no surprise to me on high settings at 60 fps with no issues.
Also forgot to mention that I also played the demo in 4K. It seems that the game so far is optimized well so you may be able to turn some settings up.
😲 WOW What an effort! Well done!
I'd call him a wizard, but I wouldn't want to discredit his hard-earned skill! amazing work! I'm so excited
Cool video! I enjoy seeing how games are made and I am so excited for when it will come out! Also I had a substitute teacher today who looked like Tom Lynskey
Great work guys! I Am very excited to see some new updates from THG... Cannot wait to purchase this experience once it is available! Keep up the good work guys!!
What a great job!
"You can count them if you wish... and see how many there were"
just sounds so defeated. i love your work good job Kyle! BOSS.
Only one guy?! Holy shit! Well done, sir!:)
there are 3 main people: Kyle, Tom and Matt... + some people that help with smaller tasks or programming + historians/consultants
That old Titanic game CD behind him, I played it what seems like a million years ago...
Will you be releasing more footage of Bill Sauder playing on the VR? If you already have then apologies, I couldn't see it
Same, It would be sweet to see the rest of Bill's, Parks', and Ken's reactions
amazing work !
This guy is a great modeller! I have several of his Virtual Sailor ships, and they are fun, but this must require a lot of work. He's just as good at 3D modelling as that Catholic priest is at cutaway scale models.
true
Perfect!I like 3d modeling and Titanic!Thank!
No words, its just beautiful i would love to see her get 3d Printed
Oh, it's going to look great once the lighting is redone. Respect to Kyle.
You guys are doing God's work. I can't fucking wait for this game to be released.
wow that is a lot of work. Didn't realize just how much work that was. I knew it was a big undertaking but that is understating it.
Dang, incredible work!!!
Looking forward, kind Sir.
Kyle you have the patience of a saint and then some.
Love you guys!!
Good lord that’s awesome!🤘🏻🤩
I bow to your awesomeness! I find all this so overwhelmingly awesome that I could spontaneously combust into anti-matter or something equally as epic. Too cool!
Keep up the good work gents!
Yeah Kyle!
wow GREAT JOB
I am just wondering how/ where you found the plans for the individual steel plates to the 'skeleton' of the ship
Mad props. With my OCD, I would get two plates in and give up, too much stress.
Based on his poster in the background, I'd say if this man can build in Minecraft, then it's only a matter of time before the Titanic hull is complete and looking amazing.
Thank you for you time
i know that you guys are putting easter eggs in both the ship and the passengers from both other games like adventure out of time etc. if im allowed to get a sneak peak into other eatser eggs will there be any from the Cameron Movie or a night to remember? will you have the coal bunker fire in the game? i would love to know something! but i know you guys are mysterious about the game and i seriously cant wait for the final release!
This game is gonna be awesome
Are you also including the feature that the water inside the ship is on a lower level, for example that you can see a porthole the water rising outside while its completely dry on your deck?
God I hope so, water clipping through walls would ruin the immersion.
Realisticly speaking , they most likely will be animating the water rather than applying real time aqua physics.

6:00 WOW
Looks awesome! Keep up the great work!
Greetings! ... VERY nice and good looking model! ... Are you planing LODs for in-game or it is not necessary considering the kind of game?
Really looking forward to this game but not so sure if my PC can handle it, it was already struggling on the demo.
Never give up you guys are the best:-)...oh and ty so much for the update i was getting worried lol
I'm making the hull plating currently. Im nearly 80% done. It is excruciatingly tedious and repetitive with changing angles. I am aware that there are some mistakes in my model. Due to a combination of my silly errors which i didn't notice or think would snowball as i progressed, and also because i can't afford to buy original plans at the moment.
I wish i saw this video before i started. But im willing to redo it because the ship deserves the respect.
200K triangles. Uh, yeah, I'll pick my jaw up off the floor now. But damn, that looks astounding.
Welcome to life...Hull 401
Love it
I love this channel... I´m from brazil
A living legend...!
60.000 Rivets? I hope unwrapping was done as a first step to the single rivet model and not last, after it was cloned 60.000 times and then arranged. .-)

Awesome job Kyle! :-o
Are there any "hard" limitations that you need to keep in mind when modelling this for use in UE4?
Curious question, for tge cad plans did you happen to use the robert hahn plans or bob reads, i know you cabt purchase reads plans anymore just curious.
