Announcing the completion of Rob

Announcing the completion of Roberto Pirrone's amazing cutaway Normandie model,
22 feet long, with all of her magnificent interiors miraculously reproduced in miniature with loving attention to detail.

Father Pirrone puts the finishing touches on the starboard side hull.

The First Class Dining Saloon, so perfectly recreated,
it looks like it could be a color photograph of the real McCoy.

Speaking of perfect, here's a recreation of one of Jean Dunand's amazing murals
from the First Class Smoking Room. It's as if we're actually there!

This amazing model is now on display aboard the RMS Queen Mary in Long Beach, California, beautifully housed in a custom-built case by Tom Nicolai.
