I cut and shaped a piece of 2x4 for the hull, and the basic superstructure is built from your favorite material...CARDBOARD. This is just the rough shape, styrene will cover the cardboard. The containers are printed out on my printer and glued together as a box. I'm going to be using railings from a N scale bridge, parts and details from various 1/32 scale model cars, details from 1/64 racing cars, thread and matchsticks.
Thank you for the compliments...more pics will follow as the project progresses
