Description
WIP Airships of the Lychgate Confederacy
Three rigid airships I am working on developing for my Lychgate Confederacy story line.
Explorer Airship
Passanger and Cargo Airship
Millitary Airship
Models are built and rendered in Bryce. Long way to go. Hope to do some of the Passanger Airship's interiour soon too.
C&C are both welcome.
Thank you

Airships! COOOOOL!!! Okay, one engineering quibble-- the passenger/crew sections are too large for the overall structure. Take a look at real 1930 airships-- the airbag sections are humongous in relation to the gondolas and other solid sections. The middle dirigible above is probably closest to realistic proportions, but I suspect the gondola should be about 25% of the size shown here. That said, flip these 180 degrees and you have a nifty trio of submersibles or retro-40s spaceships.
Very beautiful and very good! Very well done!
good work, excellent sky and POV!!
Fantastic sky and work.
DavidEMartin, Thanks for the engineering quibble - I been looking for technical drawings - What I have now are general cut through views but nothing very specific. Everything I have seen shows that the airbag takes up close to 40% of the center of the main structure - with the rear mostly being open/cargo and the front mostly open with some passanger levels - ie like the Zepps. I knew the Gondola contained most of the crew stations, quarters and bridge but not passanger areas too. More research : ) Thanks all for your comments.
Nice modeling work you have done so far. Looking forward to seeing more of this work in progress. Thanks for sharing.
Well done!
Nice work on the modelling, looking forward to seeing the finished product!!
This is great stuff, I love the lighting, atmospherics, and mood. Well Done.
Oh the humanity!
Great work! Zooming in they look outstanding! I like these different forms, shapes and functions. 5+
Fantastic well matched colours!
I really like those bullet shaped designs - more like the british R-100/101 ships. Perhaps I´m going to do a more dynamic design with another series of airships. As I said, I liked the idea of your "on top" passenger-cabin or promenade deck on top of the vessel, like you did in one of your other zep-renders. I´m still thinking of a new kind of interiour, sth. like a "sky lounge", but am not completely done with the concept. Something like a Zep cruising over the centre of a city, landing on certain "Zep-stops" during the night, picking up the well to do barflies and cruising on. Like a flying "Nighthawks" painting" by Edward Hopper.
Cool work! Very well done!
Excellent.
