Let me start all of this by saying out right, boats are not really my thing. That said I've always fancied doing a diorama with a boat. So if I'm going to do a boat diorama then its going to have to be historically accurate to a tee and I'll be going all in.

My weapon of choice is the Revell Titanic at 1:1200 scale .. yes that is correct, all in at 1200 scale tiny!

My aim was to recreate a vision I always had in my head. During the collision with the Iceberg and now using scans from below the sea bed to see real damage and not "guess" we know several boiler rooms and more areas were pierced enough to flood water, facts most of us know.

As much as water would have been flooding in, light from within the ship would be flooding out into the water, a scene impossible to see but we know factually would of happened. So this diorama is to recreate the moment after impact striking the side of the hull and to use the diorama to highlight the light flooding in the water on top.

Lastly to go that extra mile.. The iceberg feature I wish to be entirely empty / hollow. This means getting very creative with resin, however the light reflection & refraction I'm hoping will be worth the effort.
