WOW!
Do you have more pictures? Which kit is it?
Be prepared for a barrage of questions from the interested mob 👍

Hi again Martin. This is a Minicraft 1/350 diorama of the ship sinking on April 15, 1915 at about 1:25 AM. The life boats and rigging is all "kit bashed" in that I carved out the interior of the boats then added GMM passengers and crew. There are about 800 figures on the ship, some that can only be seen by close examination of the salon windows. The ship is lit with 40 separated LED's and to prevent light bleed thru all the walls are lined with aluminum tape. It looks pretty good in a dim room. Makes a great night light.

Thank you for the kind comments. That is a 230 hour build and fun most of the time.

Album info
This is a diorama 1/400 of the Titanic at the point at which the water had reached the forward deck well, about 2:15 in the morning. The boat is lit with 40 LEDs and all the life boats have been hand carved to allow for installation as launched and peopled. There are about 800 people on the model. Some you cannot see as they are inside the various edge rooms.
