Close. But count the funnels.

Poseidon?

Is that the one where the Millenium Falcon swoops in to save the Titanic?

I swear it looks like that titanic kit from revell, but hey, its a long ways away.
My first guess was Ghost ship, but Posiden would rock..

Poseidon is correct.

It is the 1/568 scale Modelcraft Queen Mary kit (any film fan worth his salt knows that the Poseidon was actually the Queen Mary.)...

I didn't scrutinize the details (such as perfectly filling seams and filing flash) as I figured in the relatively small scale it wouldn't be totally worth it. But this is a deceptively nice kit,a nd builds up quite well.

I still have quite a bit of detail painting to do, but will post more pics when done.

That -- by the way -- is on the adjacent work table just out of the shot!

Isn't it upside down?

Not until the wave hits it.

In which museum is that original Poseidon model displayed?

The movie is a classic, but last years new version had also some nice moments.

Most delayed answer in RPF History: Its at the Los Angelese Maritime Museum in San Pedro, Calrifornia.
