This model is the Sunflower in 1/700 scale by Arii. The kit is extensively modified in order to look like a modern cruise-ship, particularly those in the Costa Crociere fleet. I gave her the name "Costa Elena". Unfortunately there are very few cruise-ship kits in the market, so I had two options. The first was to scratch-build and the second was to convert. I chose the second one because of lack of time. The photos were taken with a digital camera, which I used for the first time.
