Grandpaul Posted September 1, 2012 #127 Share Posted September 1, 2012 WOW!!! That is a total "Breakway" from the usual hull art, but it's very cool. Hi Barbara. We were on the Jewel with you early this year. Great voyage and Meet&Greet that you put together. You can paint any ship I'm on any way you want as long as I am on it.

Great voyage, indeed, and so many truly wonderful folks in the cc group on that sailing, too. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darknstormy00 Posted September 1, 2012 #130 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Cartoonish? 70's van. Not at all. But I like the idea of having a contest. Here's my submission :D Love it! Think my kids watched Scooby Doo Pirates Ahoy for a week straight before we went on the Star a few weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let'sGoNow Posted September 2, 2012 #134 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Yikes, no likey. Booked for June 2013, but unless I plan to jump off my balcony I won't be seeing too much of the Peter Max images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billet Posted September 2, 2012 #135 Share Posted September 2, 2012 I like peter max art work generallly. This is still classically him and I think it sets the shop apart from the white hull gang and accurately reflects the NCL freestyle spirit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
che5904 Posted September 2, 2012 #136 Share Posted September 2, 2012 I'm surprised at how surprised everyone is! Since they announced the bow art was to be by Peter Max, this is typical of his work. Peter Max is one of the great contemporary artists of the past 50 years. Now, I wouldn't expect everybody to know who he is by name, however, when a work of his is shown, most everyone will recognize the style and can immediately relate to it. If you are a baby boomer, lived through/around the days of the Beatles, I'd find it extremely hard to believe you've never seen any of his work. Knowing Peter Max by name - that's a different issue. Sorry but I'm in the "never heard of him" camp and truthfully don't care if I ever see any of his work after seeing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckirj1 Posted September 2, 2012 #137 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Well, there's hull art and then there's hull art. I think the Sun's is very tasteful and my favorite. The Sky's is very pretty. The rest is kind of meh. I'm a child of the 60s, and I like the Peter Max Breakaway art. I get that the ship is homeported in NY, which to many is the center of the universe. Fine by me. I don't like that ghastly rendering of the disembodied Statue of Liberty head, though. It rivals the stained glass depiction in the smaller of the Jewel's main dining rooms where Lady Liberty looks like she's just been on a 3-day booze cruise.

relic2 Posted September 2, 2012 #139 Share Posted September 2, 2012 I am in the over 60 age group and my first reaction was "love it!". I like Peter Max's style and this is typical. I also agree that you won't mistake the Breakaway for a CCL ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crew mom Posted September 2, 2012 #140 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Don't know if this is a final rendition of what the Breakaway's hull art will be but this is soooooo Peter Max and exactly what I expected to see. It's exciting and vibrant! But then again - I'm a Baby Boomer so I "get it"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare eroller Posted September 2, 2012 #144 Share Posted September 2, 2012 For the most part I like the hull art on the existing NCL ships. This piece on NORWEGIAN BREAKAWAY though looks like a three year old painted it. Not a big fan, at least from the rendering. Perhaps in person it will look better?

halos Posted September 3, 2012 #147 Share Posted September 3, 2012 OK, I simply skimmed over the first page of comments but I will say that I am going to start repeating DGP1111's mantra too. It is all about the inside ....:eek: Fingers crossed that this is some sort of PR stunt. yes...the inside. It's weird how the exterior of NCL ships more suits the interiors of CCL ships (Farcus-ized CCL ships) Yuk to both.... But it definitely is more important that the interior be nice and I will just focus on that and sail Breakaway no matter how much I detest the name of the ship and the hull art.........

littlesteelo Posted September 3, 2012 #149 Share Posted September 3, 2012 The worst hull art is on the Aida ships. Whoever thought giant lips and eyes on the front of the ship is an idiot. I honestly don't see the point of hull art. NCL have a really slick ship design with the Breakaway, and the blue bow and the strange art spoils it. IMO. The only hull art which I think looks good is the one on the Epic. It isn't in your face like this is, and looks pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
