Good progress! Do you have any issues with the quality of the 1x1 slopes? I have a Mixels set that used those (brown color) and all of them split in half after a few months of being assembled. I don't know if I had a defective batch, or of they all do that...

Bummer. I wonder if the color additives are the issue.  Stick to white and black, I guess, so you can avoid a phone call from an unhappy client in 6 months.

Today's progress.

I love the way you are able to put that much detail in a model at this rather small scale. I saw the DFDS super sized ferry at Legoworld Utrecht, but the detail on that was lousy for a model at that scale, and they had a lot of funding, because it was a world record attempt. You put much more detail in your at this small scale, I salute you.

Thanks for the kind words.

The progress on the super yacht is in line with the deliver date for the customer and the last week i have building on and off on here, because it's extreme busy at the moment and have 5 different projects to work on.

The super yacht is building at the scale 1/50 and in the photo's you can see that a minifig is to big for here.

I hope you like the progress.

I just found this topic, why just now. 
you are awesome!

I should really get the drawings of the ship I work on now. I've already tried to build her in LDD, but never really got going, but you inspired me to get another go with it. But I do need the plans from her to do it right. 

Do you think its possible to do interior in a 1:40 schale ? 

 

Best regards Bart

sneak peak on what I've so far. (after re-starting for the 5th time)

Amazing Yacht, the chrome stand is a nice touch

[Dafgek81]

Thanks guys.

On the real ship the rounded edges on the windows are actually black painted, because than the lines come better out.

I don't wanted paint my bricks a make only for the rounded edges a sticker.
