A good idea for many projects.

I've done a sort of "buildup" approach for scenes or complicated objects that
would lend itself to this even at this stage.

Basically every step is a numeric level, and if a value (the clock) is equal to
or greater than that level, the object {} gets rendered.

There might be a way to "delete" selected steps to show how modifications and
corrections were made.

Anyway, I'm sure he can easily do some editing to accomplish this.


Seeing the code or a description of how some of the more interesting objects
were created is always educational.   :)

I've done the anchors, maneuvered them in place, slowly (they're heavy!), and
I've added the pin rail for the bowsprit.
This concludes the foredeck, now onto the aft.

Cheers
Ton.

Perfect! ...although... how do you drop the anchors /through/ the 
railing? ;-)

Well spotted, so early in the morning for you! That part of the railing can be
removed, but I didn't model the hinges. They are very small, and not noticeable
on this scale. At least that's what I thought.... I might put a little thicker
cylinder there, and say that that's the hinge.

Cheers
Ton.

Not /that/ early (8:38 am local time).

Hinges, yes I guessed so indeed. Maybe show them, just to avoid 
repetitive stupid questions from visiting landlubbers. :-)

There is an issue here : You need to remove the guard rails to lower the 
anchors.

For all the eagle-eyed povrayers here, I am glad you pointed out the lack of the
anchor chain. Here it is:

Cheers

Nah...! What's the use of an anchor chain if you cannot drop the anchor 
through the railing? Our eagle-eyes stalled at that point. ;-)

Makes sense.
Well, I'm on to the aft-deck now, now anchors there.

Cheers
Ton.

The poop deck is getting crowded:
The rudder is attached, and the steering wheel.

Cheers
Ton.
