The elves and my hands are still a bit fickle, so I am embarking a solo effort. Dirigibles must be produced and the Hawk 1/245 scale Graf Zeppelin is still out there, begging to be bought and used in some service to our game. While not a correct scale nor true profile for us, it is still usable if adjusted, so here we are . . . The kit can be had for under $100, this one was secured for $30 off eBay recently.
Needed changes:
The nose needs to be blunted
This will require a new nose plug, later.
The rudders and horizontal stabilizers replaced
Thankfully the tail feathers are not molded to the hull, but the gaps and mounting flanges will need some attention, later.
The engine and crew locations and designs will need changing, nice the control cabin is also an add on, like they had made it possible to convert . . .
Here's some photos of our SL 22
The control car
So now to gather some tool and bits! I will be detailing the build start to finish, including stands and cards, so stay tuned! (Order your kit soon, while supplies last!)
