yeah. the temp model of the lynx will be ebuilt out of wood. and then ill pount almuminum around the shap to get the hull. and then ill use more alumimin to make the reinforcements before ill finally be able to add compronents, and load it into the water. Total time : 2 years. (Sorry guys, it take a LONG time.)

Wow sounds like a neat project you got there. I only have four pictures of the Lego Queen of Oak Bay so far. I'll get more for you guys tomorrow because I did't have very much time tonight to take pictures because I've been up to my neck with homework. So heres a preview! Oh and the colours are random so thats the only thing wrong with it.

Not bad it's good but I don't get the passenger deck look. It's nice though.

Yeah I know the passenger deck is weird too. It's the hardest part in buiding it. Especially with the windows  |

I wonder if it would make sense to build a ship out of little peices of lego as in no interior just the exterior

I don't know, it kind of needs an interior. On my model, there is a wall going up the middle to keep it together so the top doesn't collapse. And plus the different floors prevents it from falling apart on the sides. It might work but it would make it alot harder to build.

That model is nice! I've taken more pictures of my lego ferry and posted them onto a photo site now so you guys can see them. PR Kid: I've tried making a smaller version of the ferries. In fact theres a picture on this site I'm posting that is sort of like Tsawwassen minus a berth. From left to right on that picture is a V-Class, C-Class, Tsawwassen Class, and Bowen Class. I made that model about 7 years ago, and haven't made it since. Is that what you were talking about smaller lego ferries? But heres the site! ca.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/chris_iscool2001/album?.dir=e9ef |
