Titanic's Boiler wreck for 1/144 scales shipwreck....
Posted by William B. Barney on Friday, February 4, 2011 10:32 AM

Hello,

 I was started working on the 1/144 scales of Titanic wreck. Right now, I am working on the Boiler on right scales for 1/144 Titanic wreck and I just make a great idea to used other way... As 25 years ago when Robert Ballard and teams who looking for Titanic wreck and Discovery the Boiler.
So I was decide to do it as for testing to used for details, colors and learning to used as skills for next 1/144 scales Titanic wreck. So all those Boilers that come out scratch building!

      Regards,  William Barney


So enjoy with my model of Robert Ballard, who first Discovery of Titanic Boiler! (:

Mayhap a pair of boots lying on the bottom and an encrusted #9 coal scoop?  Just a thought...............

Love what you've done so far and keep up the great work.

 THANKS for Comments

 Sorry, my secret recipes for texture on those the model that I don't see any texture kits been in any stores that mean I able was Invent those texture for on any scales of model! I maybe sell those someday.... I need some money!!

 Add boots on sea bed... I am not kind of person who do it on any model.. there more than 1,500 souls died there. If you see 2 shoe or lady shoes lay on sea bed... that where body was there and gone leave shoes and glasses and etc.  But, I already make other idea for same scales "Big Piece" for model with other many pieces around and coal scoops... it yet finish!

MR, BARNEY !  With that type of work I do have to call you MISTER ! That is nothing short of awesome ! I do believe you have captured the essence of what,s down there and very believable. This takes skill . I just do staining and water streaks off decks and am not really comfortable doing that . The early pictures of the ship makes me ask , Is the way you did the internal decks visible at the break a secret too ? You sir, are very good at what you do . some day I would love to shake your hand sir .  Tankerbuilder

Wow!  Very very good.

I want to wish you good fortune on your ebay sales. 

 Even now, knowing it is a small replica, it gives me an eerie feeling just looking at the boiler. Outstanding work.
