Hey, that's a good idea - I did not know about it! Thanks. Will check
right away!!!   :-D

Do you have any idea, how I can get a ship's boat? I am looking for a
number of 1850s items to enrich the scene.

UPDATE

Having made a small test-run for the transport items that will be, later
on, inside and around the yellow storage area. Cotton bales and hay
bales for now, but more to come.

Be warned, it is a time sink.

Not specifically 1850's.
Renderosity is a good site.

Google 3D models. I lost a lot of links due to time and my last system 
crash.

For later correction: the bales intersect the ship.

That's looking pretty cool so far    :)
For some reason, the way / method it got posted, it doesn't show up as an
in-line image, and it doesn't get listed in the image digest either   :(

Just curious - is it mathematically linked / parameterized so that you can
animate it?

Yes, I know. The deck at that location goes upwards. But the foreship
locations where the bales are stored (later on), are fully horizontal.
There won't be any cutting. :-)

Yes, with a little extra work, the wheels and the entire ship can be
animated. But that's not on my list for now. That comes later, much
later. :-)

If you use the trace() function for positioning the bales on the deck, 
you will avoid such problems.

Thanks. I heard about that function, but have problems to handle it.

But never mind, I have all coordinates of the entire scene in my mind. I
find it difficult to learn to work with so-called WYSIWYG editors, I
hand-code everything. :-)

UPDATE

The progress continues, and the main deck becomes more and more complete...
