Hello everyone, I'm a novice at modeling ships in Blender and I was recently inspired by FelisLeopard's excellent Lusitania model to give a crack at it myself. If anyone could send me or point me in the direction of deck plans, framing plans, or high-resolution images of the Lusitania, it would...
Would anyone happen to know if there have been any recent dives to the Lusitania in the last twelve-eighteen months or so ? Or if any are planned for the near future ?
The last big expedition that was that done for the "Dark Secrets of the Lusitania" documentary a few years back wasn't it ?
I...
Hello, guys. I'm making a 3D model of Lusitania and actually i feel like i'm almost done. But there are some places, that i want to cover and i have no info about it. So i have few questions. Also i'd like to receive critics, so i could improve my model.
Right now i have no plans for it. I...
Lusitania wreck I painted for fun. Acrylic on wood 18x30. Got the idea from a Ken Marschall painting of the same angle, but I wanted to go darker and dingier with it. Thanks for lookin.
A little early on the matter but i thought id start a thread compiling all the stuff happening for the anniversary.
So far there is a new Documentary on it, and yes its as bad and "theory based" as you can think. Even without me being able to understand it, it has a real crappy animation that...
The Lusitania was featured on my local TV station here in Northern Ireland. Incredible as it sounds, one of her lifeboat davits has been hiding in plain sight for decades right next to the public toilets in the coastal village of Annalong. With no signs or anything to say what it is. Imagine...
This is my current timeline, if anyone has extra tidbits or info for lifeboats it would be much appreciated if you could share
anything with - is what happened at that time, anything in between the time stamps happened during those time intervals but exact times are unknown
2:10:00 - Torpedo...
Was just wonder if anyone had found a decent sound effects that are historically accurate to this era of ships? the one iv had a hard time finding is a good sound for is the Turbine engines, cant seem to find any decent ones. If you know of one or any other good sounds feel free to share below!
Hey all i started thinking again (sadly when i start thinking i dont stop :p) and i think its possible for me to animate a real time Lusitania (and possibly Empress) sinking due to how well the final 20 min of the Titanic went. However if im going to do this im going to need some help from...
Viewer discretion is advised...if you don't like ship designs being butchered.
Just looking though Google and on another forum came across this weird screenshot taken from the BBC TV Show ''Peaky Blinders'' showing a weird amalgamation of the Titanic at Liverpool (in 1923!)
(Image found here...
Belfast is soon excepted to receive a Titanic-themed escape room as reported here: Disrespectful and in bad taste - concerns over Titanic-themed game coming to Belfast - BelfastTelegraph.co.uk
Titanic: The Final Hour (as it will be known) will involve having to escape a themed cabin with...
One of the more popular theories as to why Titanic's first funnel collapsed was due to base compression from the water pressure difference during the beginning of the plunge. I know that the funnels were made of a relatively thin metal, almost the same thickness as a thick cardboard. However...
Since the Lusitania lost power early after the attack thus plunging the unexposed interior spaces into darkness, I imagine many passengers and crew were caught out and unable to get up to the open decks before the ship sank. Since the ship had so many bulkheads including a longitudinal one and...
Looking at the profiles of the ill fated liners Lusitania and Titanic. I was struck by the differences in external design. Obviously, they told only part of the story since there were other factors to consider like position of the engines, boilers, storage holds and perhaps admiralty...
Does anyone know if Lusitania's lifeboats were fitted with tricing pendants? It looks like they weren't because I remember reading somewhere on the internet that because of Lusitania's list there was a big gap between the deck and the ship. Just asking....
