VSF 'Zeppelin' Bomber Build - Update 9/6/2017

[Captain Darling]

Did I say a final update coming up? Well it still is but not quite yet...

I was going to add fabric/tissue paper to the steering tail fin but had a thought that I could use this to attach nationality markings...below you can see the Imperial German fin skin Blu-Tacked into place, I have made up British, Russian and French fin skins too, also included in this picture is the addition of the ballast sandbags these still need a bit of paint work...


Here's how the whole thing currently looks...


A couple of close ups of the base (a bit washed out looking for some reason?)...




Almost there!

Looking pretty darn 'done' to me.

One question, though: were you considering diverting the stack heat? I know when talk was of a 'cowling', I thought that was how it would be accomplished.

Mind, a few wisps of cotton wool drifting off would prolly hush me up.

Edit: Just reread answer to my previous post

You been on the blog again Doug?     

almost as 'grog again, Doug?' and have to say, yes, rather intoxicating.
