Introducing SS Canberra in Minecraft!

This is a 1:1 scale build of the P&O Liner SS Canberra! This build features her cruising interiors.

A few things to Note about this build:
1) I recommend you use the Natural Texture Pack for full immersion.
2) I build in 1:1 scale, but building in this scale comes with limitations. Some areas may be distorted or compromised due to scale and sizing when building in 1:1. Compromises have to be made in order to complete the build, so some areas may not actually resemble the actual thing.
3) This build does not feature cabins, engine rooms, or crew member spaces. There is dead space unfortunately, but I try my best to accurately recreate the popular venues onboard. All builds primarily focuses on class accommodations (Lounges, Dining Rooms, etc).


Short history of the SS Canberra
SS Canberra was an ocean liner built for the Peninsular & Oriental Steam Navigation Co. in 1961. She was built by Harland and Wolff in Belfast and had her maiden voyage on June 2, 1961. She was a beautiful British Ocean Liner that served a great career. She was iconic for her radical design which saw her twin funnels toward the aft and her sleek superstructure. In 1982 during the Falklands War, she served in transporting troops and serving as a hospital ship. She emerged from the war unscaved (but was almost bombed). She was given the nickname "The Great White Whale" and served a great cruising career until 1997. In her final years she was given a refit and conducted cruises now. On September 30, 1997 Canberra was withdrawn from service and was sold to the Gadani ship-breaking yard in Pakistan. By the end of 1998 she was gone marking the end of her 37 year long life.
