Oil Tankers have bright decks for more visibility. White, orange, Green or Red. Check out some images of oil tankers

Thanks Amit. Have decided to go with white,red and black theme.

So deck will be white with White Dom. Which I have prepared.

Here some close up of dom and scratch built anchor winch.

I have received some deck fittings and waiting few more. Expecting to receive it by day or two.

Deck fitting would be more challenging.  8-)

What are the domes made out of?

How do you plan to reshape/modify them? The tops of the domes are not exact replicas when compared with the photos of the Arctic Princess.

It is made out of Fibreglass mate.

And picture which I have posted earlier of arctic princess was just for reference. Ship it will not match exactly to it.  

Fixing of Dom and pipeline would be different.

More progress. It was really difficult to decide about the super sturcture. But at last it is in place with lots of observation and study. Also got deck fittings so now probably it will be finised by these week end.

Here are some pics of it.

Deck Fittings.

Hey good job,

From where did you get those railings. I had made one container ship model and making railings was very tough job.
