Delta Queen - the Mississippi steamboat (Stopmotion)

<< < (3/5) > >>

Macruran:
Can't decide if I'm more impressed by cinemano's genius-level filmmaking, or his getting a hold of the prototype steamboat! Incredible work both ways!

One teensy carp though. This shot is anachronistic:



The green-red Portuguese flag was not adopted until 1911, long after the steamboat era on the mighty Mississip!  ;D

But is it? I've never seen it, only know of the tale that such a vessel was under design but got pulled. Is this what it was supposed to become? Or is this what cinemano thought it might have looked like? At least, that's what he implies:

Either way, absolutely beautiful. Many thanks for enriching the world with your work, cinemano!

Best wishes

A prototype was made, you can see it in this video! https://youtu.be/1dfU6WEBbO0?t=972 At any rate, I have no clue as to the origin of Cinemano's steamboat, and really I can't even tell what would be more impressing: him building such a faithful replica of the original, or him managing to acquire the only existing prototype of a never-released product.
