R.M.S. Queen Elizabeth

 

A very detailed model of the Queen Elizabeth by Atle Ellefsen.

 

Overall Starboard view. Rigging adds the 'final' touch.

 

Superstructure and forward funnel.

 

Close up of the forward superstructure. Note: P/E stairs, railings and davits. Attention to minute detail can enlarge the 'scale perception' of a completed model.

 

Close up of the port-side, forward. The 'Cunard red' is near bang-on. To experience the QE in wartime livery, check the modelwarships gallery.

 

Gray crossing ~ completed model enhanced via Photoshop.

 

Again, Photoshop enhancement. This could easily pass for a 1960's brochure photo!

 

Here, the model resides in a nice glass case.

 

A view from the stern. Note the brass hardware supporting the model.
