Very useful site thanks

Ideally I would have liked one of those but could not find one.
I have just won a 1/48 Henschel HS -123 on Ebay that I think will be suitable.
Also won a 1/48 walrus but I don't think it will fit

You know, I've been giving your project a lot of thought, and I've decided you should make this a double-blind game.  Whip up another one of these, and, just so you don't have to worry about storage space after the game, send it to me for safe-keeping.

A very impressive model - and made from CARD!  Well done.

Part of the store room is going to be an Armoury. Stiil to try and get hold of some guns to stock it though.

The new Bolt Action plastics may be just the thing :

If you send them an email and show them your zeppelin they might even send you a preview sprue.

Not much been done over the last few weeks been away on holiday, so has my brother. We are both just starting to get back to it.
Done a bit more work to the engine pods.

Engine inside


Support struts to attach it to the main body


In place




Crew man for scale


The engine inside one has been painted


and I have built the other three


My brother has done some work on his bit including outside skin and some glass on the front windows but I don’t have any photos yet.

That project will still keep you busy for a while, I think. Marvellous!!!

[Malamute]

It just gets better and better.

I second that!
But with the addition that it's a three-way blind (the GM needs a zeppelin). I can store the third for a while...

The completed airship really will be something to behold.  Who will get to keep ... er... look after the it when finished?

Magic!  Pure Magic!

Hoorah! Another update! 

Is that pipe stiffeners you've used for the engine exhausts?

[gamer Mac]

Small update

Propellers

Engines in place


Still got another two to complete

Have started painting but I am not convinced what colours to paint it. I am going with a grey.
