The Cammell Laird team finish the base coat and start to add colour. 

Red, green and gold: the team work on the port side of the ship.

Adding a touch of black paint to complete Carlos Cruz-Diez's design.

Carlos and the team of painters proudly present the ship to the public on 12 June 2014.

Dazzle Ship takes pride of place on the Liverpool Waterfront. See it there until late 2015.
