Yeah, or a dedicated mast with proper lights, flag spreaders, etc. (I know it won't the super clean and simplistic, minimalistic Swedish way)
Yes they were, kinda. The fake funnel was made by the same company that made domes for most Sat Com manufacturers to hide the internals not domes. The TV one was made so the Boss could watch Cricket anywhere in the world.
Nice and clean lines as usual, but with the rendering being 1-dimensional, it is difficult to see get a sense of the whole vessel. 3-D should be easy with today’s computer programs?
Yes, 3-D has always been easy, but if this profile took me a couple of hours to do, a 3-D would take a couple of months...
To be able to make a realistic 3D rendering, you need to build it from a number of 2D plans of everything, before you can add surface materials and make the final shape visible in 3D. I always start with a profile, then from above with a preliminary hull shape, then the GA, before I draw up every frame and wall including the fixed interiors, like galley and engine room so I am sure it is doable. After this it goes to a Naval Architect who is looking over the dynamics and helps out to make a surface model. Then we can start thinking of 3D-renderings if the project is not already sold to the first clients, which it usually is, so you all can see it in reality on the coming Yacht Shows...
