QUEEN MARY 2 model
We at ModelShipMaster.com do whatever it takes to
build accurate and beautiful cruise ship models for your beautiful home and
esteemed office. Our models stand grand, projecting
characters. They don't look 'dead' like a plastic
toy or a simple
decorative accessory.
Models might look
similar but when examine closely, they are quite
different. When you search, pay
particular attention to accuracy and construction method. Look for large enough
photos to see if the windows and doors are dark decal
(will peel off eventually) or real cuts. Do the
photos show all angles of the model ship? Your
authentic model not only serves you well but also
will become a valuable heirloom for your children to
remember you by.

Thank you for allowing us to be in your
recollection.
Did You Know?
Comparable to a structure as tall as a
21-story building, Queen Mary 2 is over four city blocks in length!
Queen Mary 2’s power plant
produces sufficient electricity to light a city the size
of Southampton with a population of 200,000.
Queen Mary 2 is the only
ship that can boast a planetarium.
Queen Mary 2 ’s whistle is
audible for ten miles and was originally on Queen Mary.
Artists representing 128 countries have been
commissioned to provide more than $5 million worth of
art for Queen Mary 2.
There are one thousand, two hundred and fifty three
officers and crew onboard QM2.
At the time of her
construction, Queen Mary 2 was the longest, widest, and
tallest passenger ship ever built, and with her gross
tonnage of 148,528 also the largest. She was the first
major ocean liner built since Queen Elizabeth 2 in 1969,
the vessel she succeeded as flagship of the Cunard Line.
Queen Mary 2 was intended to routinely cross the
Atlantic Ocean, and was therefore designed differently
from many other passenger ships. Expenses were increased
by the high quality of materials, and having been
designed as an ocean liner, she required 40% more steel
than a standard cruise ship. The ship's cost was
approximately $300,000 per berth, nearly double that of
many contemporary cruise ships.
Queen Mary 2 is also much faster
than a contemporary cruise ship. Instead of
the diesel-electric configuration found on many
ships, Queen Mary 2 uses integrated electric
propulsion in order to achieve her top speed. She
has a maximum speed of over 30 knots and a cruising
speed of 26 knots!
Queen Mary 2 has fifteen restaurants and bars, five
swimming pools, a casino, a ballroom, a theatre, and the
first planetarium at sea. There are also kennels and a
nursery on board!
This primarily wood Queen Mary 2 model has the following qualities:
-
Plank-on-frame hull
- Windows and portholes are cutouts (not black
decals), uniform, and on straight lines.
- Captivating
artistic lighting, with different colors and green/red navigation
light that will light up your special evenings.
LED light powered by standard 9v battery for your
convenience or by a compact adapter to wall
outlet. Cheap
model makers have neither the
artistry sense nor the necessary engineering ability.
Their light is ugly
incandescent
bright white placed on the model's floor like
mushrooms.

Don't be fooled
by some model makers out there who freely claim
their models "museum quality" or even "true
museum quality". Their ships are wrong on many
counts. The hull is horrible. Some parts are
oversized yet other undersized. Plenty are
wrong; Many are missing. Go here to learn

how to choose a model ship.
Despite the carelessness by someone let's end on a
positive note: QM2 is MSM at its very best.
You can't get any better than this model. It's flawless in execution,
the centerpiece for anybody who has a passion for the great ocean liners
of the past and present. Which is to say that it is a masterpiece. I
have been a client since a year after MSM started selling models on the
Internet, and over those years MSM exhibited a commitment to increasing
both quality and accuracy. Well Done!
I am now retiring from collecting. QM2 is my last model. Can't think of
a better way to end it. Will miss MSM. Its been a seven, almost 8
year journey. Regards Sebastian"
"She is indeed beautiful!
Excellent workmanship.
Congratulations to you and your team for such splendid models.
Kindest regards,
Doug"
"The 64" QM2 model is unpacked, and it is

Thank you!
