...I was wrong. Now, over two weeks later:

Finished product, complete with lifeboats, funnels, masts and flags.

Top view overall.

I've noticed a few places that could use some retouching, but keep in mind this model's 14.5 inches long. The details are pretty tiny, and hard to notice from arm's length.

The ship overall's the Zhengdefu (Kitech) 1:720 Titanic model kit, with motor and lights. I left out the latter, and bought a set of photo-etched parts to add railing and ladders. Very little of the ship is scratch built. I cut out parts of the kit's display base to add stuff like cargo hatches, vents, etc.

Also, this website was immensely helpful.
