Disney (style) Nautilus Interior (backdrop/set)

[modeleers]

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?

 

[modeleers]

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.

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 gun ..

Nice backdrop!

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

Excellent! Don't think I've seen this many pics...or as detailed. Turned out exceptionally

Beautifully done! Your underwater rifle is perfect good Sir!

Beautiful work, all that's missing is a sea themed light fixture with an Edison bulb.
