howD all,

I have a large ship in the works called the Eon.
It is both a ocean-going luxury yacht as well as
a space-going, er, luxury yacht ;-)

It is based largely on various multimillion dollar
luxury yachts and luxury 747 aircraft (yes you read
that right) that Syd Mead has designed and executed
for VERY wealthy oil sheiks, Donald Trump, and other
rich folk.

since it will take so long to build, I've placed
a "in progress" folder on my brickshelf here:

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=9507

wherein I will post pictures of the project and its
various elements as I complete them

i will post when i add to the folder, since (as always)
i like to get feedback about these things as i go along.

thx much
-paul

(...) Very interesting! I'm into luxury yacht design myself, and the dream/very-long-term project is to build a huge (microfig-)scale yacht with a proper hull, possibly based on the works of Jon Bannenberg/Oceanfast. Before my dark ages I built (...) (23 years ago, 14-Feb-02, to lugnet.space)
