The state rooms will have simple beds, tables, and closet...the forward crews quarters has bunks, table and galley items such as stove, sink, and cooler box.

I will post when i finish painting everything...That's it for now...
Cheers,
Carl

The steamer is beautiful - an amazing scratchbuild and lovely weathering.

The fittings and furniture - brilliant stuff!  I think you need to go and work for Ikea  :D

IMPRESSIVE - to say the least!  that's all super fantastic.  i just wonder if all the decor will be removable in case there's need for gaming.

heeh...hey!!...thanks so much for the positive comments!!...I think i have left room for gaming in most of the areas...at least enough room for figures to get around pete...but we will see...i had planned to glue some of the furniture like the closets and the galley area down as well as the crew's Q furniture...the engine room and fuel/water rooms as well...but space for a few figures to be staged...
and...LOL@ eric...yessss....I am quite mad!! heh...this hobby was meant to calm ...soothe the nerves that cause the madness.....BUT.......lol!!
tytyty MomMalcyBogaten, Momotaro, and Cymril!!

So far, I am still enjoying this build...but the end is near!!

Cheers,
Carl

UPDATED!!
Interior shots with painted furniture in place...I still have to connect the steam engine to the boilers and maybe build a smoke flu for the boilers...but that may be a bit much...






I still have to place the wheel latches on the bulkhead doors as well as build the ship's wheel for the bridge/wheelhouse and the hook and lines for the cargo boom.
but let me know what ya think so far...things have been going slowly due to Halloween decorations and such
Cheers,
Carl

carl - "may be a bit much"??? i think the level of detail you already have is way over the top already - at least compared to my feeble attempts.
