Nigel Bryant's Ghosts of the Abyss Wreck Model

Added on 11/1/2003

This wreck model was based on James Cameron's recent 2001 expedition in filming the documentary Ghosts of the Abyss. I haven't actually seen the film, but based on observations from historians and the recent report by Ken Marschall (Check it out at www.marconigraph.com) and from the book "Ghosts of the Abyss: A Journey into the Heart of Titanic" I managed to model the recent deterioration changes occurred to her since the 1985 discovery.

As noted in the report and book, the screen promenade deck screens have rusted out and the gym's roof has totally collapsed with end of the boat deck fallen into A-deck. No doubt further collapses will occur. So why did I decided to model the wreck this way? Probably because I was curious to learn about the recent collapses to the changing appearance of Titanic. Another reason is because Cameron was the first person to actually film most of the interior of the vessel so I decided to model it because of that great technologically triumph. Hopefully more expeditions will occur with the same in mind. Thanks to everyone who have helped me with the model, it is still a work in progress. I still need finish the seabed but am unsure what material to use. Hopefully when the seabed is finished, I will post some more later updates.
