Exploring Titanic's Bow (Wreck Model)

So I thought instead of showing you the latest updates on the wreck model in a slide show, I would do an 'exploration' video of the wreck. Basically, its kind of the same thing James Cameron did when he was getting ready to shoot video of the wreck site for the movie in 1995. He used a scale model of the wreck and lipsitck cameras to design the shots he wanted. So without any further delay, here is the the exploring Titanic's Bow video (Stern Video coming soon)

you made the boilers out of the funnels that came with the kit didnt you lol

[SSPoseidon846]

@SuperTerminatrix That's a combination of elements. Firstly I put the tops of the funnels in so I would have a back mount for the five boiler faces I mad from a medium width cardboard. I then carefully used a modelling scalpel in order to add texture to the boiler faces.

So what did you think of my cardboard models?

[SSPoseidon846]

@SuperTerminatrix They were quite good, especially considering paper is such a difficult media to work with, There are a few things missing on them but hopefully with what you've seen on my videos you will be able top create a more accurate reproduction of the wreck. Keep up the good work!

Did you know that the iceberg gash is hidden 60 some feet under the sea floor that gash you made on the bow is the gash from the impact of the bow hitting the sea floor at 25 mph

[SSPoseidon846]

@SuperTerminatrix Certainly did. In 1996 sonar was used to penetrate the mud and reveal the damage. There is also a small section of iceberg damage visible at the very end of the mud pile 2 feet above the forplate in boiler room number 5 which was discovered by Bill Garske. Your spot on with the speed to. Data gathered by scientests after vigourous testing revealed that the Bow was travelling at about 20 knots when she hit the sea floor after an approximate 8 minute descent.

Do you have one for sale?

[SuperTerminatrix]

did the port side of the bow have holes in it like you model or did you add the extra holes and the port side is the left side. I was wondering cause I started back on my model I am now going to make a video of my stern wreck and post it. The stern is dead on accurate that I made

[SuperTerminatrix]

did you melt the back of it with a lighter?

[SuperTerminatrix]

Is the sea floor made of plaster or what? Get back at me on it
