      Hi Saw,

      I did not use any plugins for the hull,Its just texturing etc. nothing fancy,A hip like the Lusitania`s hull would be tricky and require a Texture made for it.

      Dave as im sure you are aware that this is a game model and in reality the Ribs are not visable,I have modeled The full ribs on ships like these before but it is alot of work for something that will later be removed.

      About the sails I am also aware of it,the pictures shown are incorrect,its abit tricky to make cloth fold around a line in a game as you will also notice when she is on a close haul her main square intersects the shrouds and on a run the Gaff intersects the Backstays as well,I have found a way to control this in game but still needs tweaking. Thanks

        Its been a wile since ive done anything on her,but its time to finnish her up.
        Sail Textures have been made and added on, this is a tiresome task that involves modeling the ropes and all the details on each sail,then Baking the texture,then fitting the texture to the sail mesh.
        Im happy with the way it turned out,all Dirty and old looking is my style.

          bravo... what an incredible journey this model has been. thanks for taking the time to cut the development shots and render them... the process of watching it come to life was an experience aside from the wonderful model itself.

          where do we get this game?

            Thanks Krisidious, She still has some work before she is finnished, Baking will be the last and most rewarding step.
            The Game can be found here, She will be available for both Virtual sailor 7 and Vehicle simulator ( More for Vehicle sim as it is has the latest engine and looks way better )

                that is a really kool simulator... the water effects are amazing. can you put land and buildings in that simulator? after seeing this I'm afraid you're going to have to make a movie and show us the Alert in action.

                    Well Shes almost there,All baked up and looking gorgeouse in game ๐Ÿ˜„ ,Baking took about 8 hours to do a total of 12 bakes ,8 2048 x 2048 and 4 1024 x 1024. Just have to fit the one glass window and the longboat,im not quite happy with the longboat,might add some more details and rebake,it being seperate makes it easy to modify,might even get a more attractive 18ft Jolly on there.

                              The combination of modeling skill, presentation style, and subject matter, makes this
                              the best thing I have ever viewed on sketchucation.

                              Masterful!

                                        I want to echo the praises already said here. Model is fantastic! Presentation throughout this work was top notch also! ๐Ÿ‘ It looks really great in-game and I would love to er, "drive" her. ๐Ÿ˜• It has been awesome following your work and I look forward to see the result of the ship on your other thread. Once again, thanks for showing us and taking the extra time to put together a great presentation look. ๐Ÿ˜„

                                        This should be moved to the gallery as it is no longer a WIP, right? ๐Ÿ˜‰

                                            I have read through the comments and you briefly describe your process for creating the hull in one of them. Do you have any photos showing the steps of this process or could you post some photos. Did you do all this work with the free version or the pro version? Any special plugin's?

                                            Speaking for myself there are a lot of model shipwrights who are looking for a CAD program that they can use to build ship plans with, your work clearly proves that SketchUp is very capable of this in the right hands. Is is possible to get your model for study purposes at least the hull section?

                                            Thanks

                                            Full speed ahead!
