"RMS Britannia was an ocean liner of the British and North American Royal Mail Steam Packet Company, later known as Cunard Steamship Company. She was launched on Wednesday 5 February 1840, at the yard of Robert Duncan & Company in Greenock, Scotland. The ship and her Britannia-class sisters, Acadia, Caledonia, and Columbia, were the first ocean liners built by the company... Britannia was a large ship for the period, 207 feet (63 m) long and 34 feet (10.3 m) across the beam, with three masts and a wooden hull. She had paddle wheels and her coal-powered two-cylinder side-lever engine (from Robert Napier) had a power output of about 740 indicated horsepower with a coal consumption around 38 tons per day. She was relatively fast for the time: her usual speed was about 8.5 knots (16 km/h), but she could do better if the winds and currents were favourable. She had a tonnage, or carrying capacity, of 1,154 tons (by the Builder's Old Measurement). She was capable of carrying 115 passengers with a crew of 82." (Wikipedia)
This is a build I have wanted to do for a while as after the caravel, a side wheel paddle steamer is probably my favourite type of vessel, and I also wanted to make something civilian (though I know it was eventually converted into the SMS Barbarossa of the Prussian navy). The interior is partially completed with the room layouts and engine done.
You may use this build for a server or video but please give credit as it would be greatly appreciated! Rendered with Chunky.
