Town, Trains and Boats 1987

[legolex76]

I noticed that there are a few sets still missing from 1987 so I thought it might be good to start a new thread.

Keep in mind that there may be some models posted in the original "1980's 1990's Town and Trains" thread so please check there, or by using the forums search, or even in the OMR Database before uploading any models here.

My first contribution is thanks to Philo who recently created two of the missing, floating hulls! I will post the remaining boats shortly. 

The render below is based on the box art in which the rear black 1x6 bar with open studs was moved back by one stud compared to the instructions. This allows the Minifig to be attached where otherwise the black bar would have been.

So I finally managed to set up the new laptop today, and for some reason the hulls for the 4020 and 4030 are not showing up at all in LDView. It shows up fine in Studio, no error messages from LDView or MPDCenter. Not sure what is going on but I am guessing it is a local problem and that the files should be ok.

Turns out the issue with the hulls was the import function for unofficial parts in MPD center, as well as LDview not downloading the parts automatically. I manually embedded the hulls into the LDR files and re-uploaded them to the posts above. The LDView issue is resolved in the new 4.5 Version.

File and render for 4020 are updated in the original post above. Thanks, Takeshi and Pillippe for making this possible!

I sent a message to Milan a while back asking for input concerning making string on reels, but didn't hear back yet. Does anyone have a recommendation on a good and (if possible) relatively simple way to extend the string in this file that he made (or how this string was actually made)? I think the diameter of the reel itself is the same for the smaller version, which is on the ship models. I would then try to fix the missing string issue on the boats I uploaded recently. Thanks!
