meschepers Posted June 15, 2009 That is quite impressive. I love the amount of detail you put into this model. It is really making me ready for my next cruise in Sept. Everything is exactly as you would expect on a cruise ship from the shops to the theater. I do have one question though: Is there a casino on board for the passengers who like to gamble? I saw about everything else and I was just wondering. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Klaus-Dieter Posted June 16, 2009 That's a billiant MOC, AaronLego! I really it! It looks absolutely realistic! The most I like those interior and exterior detials you added to it - especially the swimming pool area - very lovely! If only TLG offered (of course not in this size but in a size similar to the cargo ship from 2007) a pleasure cruiser - that would be absoluetly awesome! :oh: Very well done! And btw: Welcome to EB, AaronLego! Klaus-Dieter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AaronLego Posted June 17, 2009 I have added sum extra photos on the brickshelf link - one of the bridge, bowling alley and casino. They take a while to upload so will put more on soon, Aaron Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darris Posted July 3, 2009 Architects should take a closer look on this one, it's impressive to see the technique for every little details, I admit that it looks as real as it get to me. As the matter of fact I think it's quite similar with a Cunard Cruise Lines ship. Congrats, all this hard work was worth it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Azrael Posted July 15, 2009 What a great job Aaron, I am an actually Cruise Ship Designer here in Fort Lauderdale Florida. I've worked on a couple of the Seabourn Ship Refits. You nailed it! I just completed one myself, based on the MV Horizon and MV Zenith two sister ships that used to be with Celebrity Cruises Sadly no longer in the fleet. Just a bit shorter than yours at 2.39 meters (8’2” for us old yanks LOL) There is an open Facebook Gallery Here if you want to see more pictures, I don't want to clutter up your post too much *laugh* http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=1151...mp;l=01a3496e95 Saw the additional pictures of yours too. Very impressed! Great Job, I love the attention to detail in yours, we should convince LEGO to put our ships in port somewhere together *laugh* Awesome job! Keep up the good work! ~Aaron (Yeah, we ironically have the same name too LOL) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ConductorPete Posted July 22, 2009 The pool section is brilliant. Do you have some better shots of the shaping of the hull? Hi there, I am specifically interested in the Central Station you have made and I would like to suggest advertising it on the official lego website and on the lego city rails column..

Milan Posted July 23, 2009 I am just impressed not with details, but with persistence and effort invested in this ships. Really, it takes enormous patience to achieve so good MOC! Great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
