I’ve been adding details to the control tower this week. Some are pretty small, like glazing in the windows, steps out the back, and a cable to the aerial mount. As usual I realised too late that I couldn’t use wire without having to repaint the whole roof, so I cobbled a paper one together out of decorative string and a lot of stickiness.
I also added some more obvious details,, like the Really Big Sign:
Just in case there’s some confusion, perhaps, or a Swashbuckling hero is in danger of mistaking it for a lifeguard hut or furniture showroom.
I was feeling pretty pleased that I could read this sign from the other side of the apartment until I realised that was 4m or 15′ away, which is barely the length of a Zeppelin in this scale.
There may be a lesson in that somewhere.
Before someone asks, I'm not planning to make a scale length Zeppelin.
Probably
