Title: 1/87 scale steam passenger ferry
Post by: chester on April 10, 2010, 01:02:31 PM
Built this small diorama some time ago and photographed it with the Penobscot Bay behind. The model is a resin piece from Artitec with a lot of nifty p.e. pieces. Some minor additions like the lifeboat.

Wonderful model Chester. The second photo, as viewed from the stern is particularly moving. So do you live somewhere near Penobscot Bay? Such a beautiful area, used to rent a cottage there in the summer just outside of Searsport.
