I am working on a couple for a more Ealing than Hollywood range of pulp figures,As yet they haven't a home,although I do have my own range with 1st Corps and the option to expand in any direction.
The pilot figure in the picture was knocked up in a little over an hour so it's not that great and not worth casting.

Bullshit, he looks great.

Thank you Fram,but no  .
Most of its sin's are covered by the paint and the cockpit edge.The biggest is the goggle lens are different sizes .and the peak on the cap is too flat on the face.So I kept the goggles and peak dark to hide it.Also the beard has a horizontal split under the lip.so when I put the figure in ,I went back and lightend the colouring in the beard.it does what I intended it for,but it really wouldn't look good in metal.

That really is excellent. What's the reason for the pipe pointed at the propellor?

[tin shed gamer]

Foiled  
Some airships have a pipe drawing the heated air from the engine in this case it's to draw your eye from, the fact the base/stand runs up through the gondola into the body of the balloon,via the first pipe.
