    Sep 22, 2011 - Disney (style) Nautilus Interior (backdrop/set) #1

    To better represent my Crew, Vulcania Volunteers - at Conventions & Sci-Fi / Goff - Nautilus related presentations, I built this 3 panel ( Disney / Goff ) Nautilus themed Set as a backdrop display & for photo-opps
    ...just add SteamPunks.

    In the off season it will be set up in my cabin.

    That is awesome. Hey, since you are a member of the VV, any updates on when the nautilus print series will be complete?

    Hey! - whoever
    (that name is familiar but I can't place the face)

    Print 1 of 5 was the complete Nautilus Exterior(s) (IMO: 111% faithful to the 11 ft. Hero except for the convoluted rivet patterns which were different on either side).

    What you asked about:
    Prints 2 thru 5 (maybe 6) represent the Interior -

    David is wrapping up most of the preliminary work, - making it all fit & keeping it real, as if she were a functioning Vessel of that era, ...but getting all the Ballast works, cabins & passage ways integrated with the room next door or the deck overhead or underfoot takes some doin'! This part of Mr. McCamant's endeavor is already over 4 years in the making, with well over 1500 hrs. logged.

    Re: updates / when?:
    I don't know.

    Test assembly of the Nautilus Bulkhead set...
    to assess lighting requirements & gauge how much weathering to add
    test shot to see what the set looks like when populated

    Iconic set pieces from an Iconic Movie.

    Funny thing is the last 2 days I spent re-watching the Movie and special features.

    Walt almost went broke but boy did he ever make one for the ages!

    Nice backdrop!

    I might have to suggest the crew organise something similar for the next Steampump.
