This is the Future "Normandie" ..working on the dimesions and lines of the old one and taking some clues from modern cruise ships, this is the result! Thanks to ALVAMA, Charybdis cause I get some clues from their designs of Normandie & QM2.

Wow, Navarchos. She is a beaut! (Not as beautiful as the original designed by Yourkevich, but still far more so than the vast majority of "floating hotels" out there!)
Of course the only exception I have are the pods, but then I just don't like them. But, hey, that's an entirely personal dislike! I do wish someone (preferrably Chantiers in Nantes!) would build her! (Also, on a personal preference list: would it be impossible to fit a more Normandie-like bridge, rather than the "ultra modern" one you've got?)

Thanks a lot!
Off course "Bezo" the original is an OLD TIME CLASSIC....nothing will ever overtake her beauty!!!
But in our world of the floating skycrapers this one i thing would be unique along with the "TITANIC II".
Fill free to make any changes you thing that will make her more beautifull!

Very nice, Like Bezobrazov, I'm not a fan of pods but its more of an aesthetic thing, which the bow does very well!

Can we see a not-resized one?

Also, something looks off about the pods. I'll let you know when I know what it is.

Beautiful work Navarchos, and I agree that the pods are e necessary evil these days, but as they are below the water line, they won't show if the ship will be built.
Also check your image host as the drawing seems to have been resized.
