I may, I do have an excellent source for her.

Beautiful work Cunardfan. I also hope you'll do the Aquitania, as she is one of Cunard's greatest, and hasn't been done.

Wow, nice! I did a full tour of this vessel (or her sister, can't remember) including walking through the ship's double bottom. Meanwhile, our tour guide, an old North Sea Ferries veteran, kept complaining about the quality of the Italian workmanship from the yard in the engine room. Not sure whether there was any truth to it.

P.S. is there something you can do by means of shading to show the lounge in front of the funnel has a curved front?

It's an problem, we had some vessel in Norway that was build in Italy, and after the first year of operation they had to rebuild the engine room, it was so many problem with them.
