Description
This is the first of the Airship designs I have been working on. Its inspired by the Vickers Trans Atlantic design that was being considered in the early 1930's UK. It was never built - the goal was a 48hr passage between London and New York.
The Model is built and shaded in Hexxagon.
Textures applied in Bryce - final texturing has to wait the completion of the model. The next model I am looking at to start on is the Moring mast for the Airships.
C&C are welcome.
Thanks to all for the comments on the Airship Hanger and ideas - I am definitely looking into the all wood one built before WWII.

Excellent ship design!
this is cool warm hug, Linda
I've got a full bladder, just a moment. Definitely requires magnesium. I had a false coin about the size of a silver dollar from Dow chemical that was made of magnesium and had the note "from the sea". Apparantly, terrestial brine was not sufficient not even dolomite. It is one of the tests of the budding aviator to ask if he would drop "boxfin magnesium on the orphan asylum". I think this is a garbled reference to the Lancasters accidentally bombing an insane asylum in Pilsen trying for the Skoda works. The first American in WW-I to die was a doctor in hospital bombed by a zeppelin. Have you seen the new Maybach in person?
Looks really great.

Nice ship, I like the sky colors.
Really interesting project. I like the elegant design, obviously with a passenger deck on top. What a damn shame that era ended in Lakehurst.
Great one! Really nicely done!
Wild, cool concept. Thanks for your comment.
