Introducing TSS Regina Magna in Minecraft! [Exterior Only]
This is a 1:1 scale build of the Chandris Liner TSS Regina Magna! This build is an exterior only build.
Short History of TSS Regina Magna:
Originally built as the SS Pasteur for Compagnie de Navigation Sud-Atlantique, she served in WW2 as a troop transport ship. After the war, she continued sailing until she was bought by North German Lloyd in 1956 and transformed into the TS Bremen. She served as Bremen for 12 years when she was sold to Chandris Lines in 1971. She was renamed to Regina Magna and was the flagship for Chandris for 5 years. Unfortunately due to rising fuel costs in the 70s, she was laid up and in 1977 she was sold to Philippine Singapore Ports Corporation of Saudi Arabia. She was renamed Saudiphil I and served as an accommodation ship for Saudi workers for a couple years. Finally, in 1980 she was sold to the Philsimport International in Hong Kong and renamed Filipinas Saudi I. While being towed to scrap she sprung a leak on her stern side and rolled to Port. Sinking and ending her 41-year-long life.

Read this before you explore my ship builds:
1) I recommend you use the Natural Texture Pack for full immersion. I exclusively build in this texture pack to give my builds a unique look and feel. You can download the Natural Texture Pack here.
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. Some areas may not resemble the actual ship and in those circumstances, I have to fictionalize some aspects about the build to "balance out" the build or to allow player interaction. I fully recognize 1:1 is not a perfect scale to build in but I personally find 1:1 to be the sweet spot for me.
3) I don't build cabins, engine rooms, or crew spaces. The reason is there is little to no information on what some of these spaces actually looked like, so I'd rather not spend the time to build something that I don't have information on. There is dead space on my builds because I primarily focus on class accommodations (Lounges, Dining Rooms, etc) and tend to focus less on passenger corridors, cabins, crew spaces, etc.
