LPG/C Donau
by Roel Van de Velde
1/700
(Scratchbuilt)
This is a fully scratch built 1/700 Donau. She is a "handy-size" LPG carrier which can carry Ammonia, Propane, Butane, Propylene and lots of other cargoes. Her main cargoes are propane and butane though (Approx. 17,500t of cargo). She is a semi-pressurised ship, this means she can either carry her cargo fully refrigerated, like most other ships, at atmospheric pressure, or she can carry it at a higher pressure (up to approx. 5 bar) at a higher temperature (boiling point at that pressure). She has a length of 183m and a beam of 30m. She was built as "Gaz Nordsee" in 1984 in Germany and is still trading today.
The diorama base is showing a typical dangerous situation as they happen every day all over the world. Many fishermen moving around in shallow waters, where merchant ships always run the risk of grounding. Safe distances are heavily reduced in able to keep the merchant ship from grounding and the fishermen from sinking. The small fishermen are made from Styrene, the base is white cardboard, first painted with a layer of Humbrol Baltic blue, then covered with acrylic gel and afterwards again painted with Humbrol Baltic blue. After that the white was applied to create the wakes and bow waves.
I built the ship from styrene sheet and milliput. For the piping I used brass rod of 0.8mm and 0.5mm as well as steel rod of 0.4mm. The supports are made from stretched sprue. The piping was simplified a little although I tried to keep it as close as possible to the real ship. Normally the colour of the hull is more orange/light red, yet I haven't found a good colour for Exmar hulls yet.
As she is turning, I also put a 2mm layer of Styrene under one side of the hull to give her a small rolling motion. This adds to the dynamic nature of this dio. It is not so visible in the pictures, but in reality it is pretty obvious.
She is owned by Exmar, the same owner as the LNG carrier Excel which I built earlier. Some of the pictures show them together. Excel was a standard sized LNG carrier, but by now she has also become a handy-size LNG with the advent of much larger ships in that class. The last picture shows how relative the meaning of "large" can be. The tug in the front is a "large" Ocean going Salvage Tug, while the cruiser next to her is a (unfinished) Slava class cruiser (approx. the size of a Ticonderoga class cruiser in USN). They are about the same size as the Donau, although with a much smaller beam. Then there is a Excel, handy size by now, and on the top the Ultra Large Crude Carrier TI Europe (unfinished)"
“多瑙河”号液化石油气运输船
制作者:罗尔•凡•德•费尔德
比例:1/700
(从零开始)
这是一个完全从头开始制作的1/700的“多瑙河”号。她是一个“轻型”液化石油气运输船,可携带氨,丙烷,丁烷,丙烯和大量的其他货物。尽管她的主要货物是丙烷和丁烷(约1,750万吨货物)。她是一个半压船,这意味着她可以像大多数其他船舶,在常压下装载全冷藏货物,或在更高的压力(高达约5帕)装载较高温度(在这种压力下的沸点)的货物。她有183米长,最大宽度为30米。她于1984年在德国的“"Gaz Nordsee”建造,目前仍在使用。
场景显示了一个典型的危险局势,因为它们每天发生在世界各地。很多渔船走动在浅水区,在那里商船总是有可能搁浅。能够防止商船搁浅和渔船沉没的安全距离严重减少。小渔船是由苯乙烯做的。该场景是白色的纸板,第一涂上一层Humbrol的波罗的海蓝色,然后覆盖丙烯酸凝胶及以后再涂上Humbrol的波罗的海蓝色。之后用白色创建尾波和船首波。
船舶由苯乙烯片材和milliput制作。管道我用的是0.8mm和0.5mm的黄铜棒以及0.4mm的钢条。的支持是由伸展浇道。管道简化一点,但我试图保持尽可能接近真实的船。通常船体的颜色更加橙/淡红色,但对于Exmar的船体我还没有找到一个好的颜色。
因为船在转弯,我也把2mm的苯乙烯片垫在船体一侧的下面,造成一个小的倾斜,这增加了动态性质的效果。这在图片上不是明显的,但实际上是很明显。
该船为埃克斯马(Exmar)航运公司所拥有,我以前制作过同一所有者的液化天然气运输船的Excel。把一些照片放在一起显示。中间Excel是一个标准尺寸的液化天然气运输船,但现在随着那个级别中更大的液化天然气运输船出现,她也成为轻型。过去的图片可以显示怎样的相对意义上的“大”。前面的拖船是一个“大”远洋救助拖轮,而她旁边的巡洋舰是一个(未完成)光荣级巡洋舰(美国海军“提康德罗加”级巡洋舰的规模)。他们与“多瑙河”号差不多大,虽然船的宽度小得多。然后顶上的一个Excel中,是欧洲超大油轮TI,现在也是轻型(未完成)。 |
