Illustration of Olympic by Jerry Vondeling

Skill Level 3/5
Previous experience recommended.

These models are the creation of card modeler Jerry Vondeling, based on my Titanic kit. They build into 1:1200 scale waterline replicas of the Olympic at various stages of her career and are approximately 9 inches (23cm) long when complete.

You will need a colour printer capable of handling card or cover stock to print the parts sheets. 67 lb cover stock (approx 8.5 thousandths of an inch or 0.2 mm thick) is recommended.

See photos of the finished model.
