As you can se there is not a lot to this kit. It qualifies for hot out of the molds but I’d be embarrassed to use what looks to be so simple in that category. It’s 1/720 scale
Cool!
Interesting to see how it builds up.
Been looking at their Zeppelin kits and wondered what they were like.
they are not hard to build but there are no real location marks for the delicate gondola assemblies so those are hard to get right. I can post pics I guess
Use it. Simple? Sounds good to me!
Please, post pix.
Way back when, ITC made a USN blimp. I keep meaning to write it up, maybe this is a good time? I’ve never seen it.
Thanks. Would love to see some some pics of them.
That’s really nice. Very neat build.
Wasn’t the R34 the first airship to cross the Atlantic from Scotland to New York?
i believe so
I do have a book about it somewhere, which I read years ago.
If I remember right, it made the flight with two stowaways on board. A teenage lad who wanted to start a new life in America and a cat!
zeppelin P type. I’ll eventually redo this one because the dull coat reacted badly with the dark brown paint
The blimp halves glued together. There is a ridge that’ll need to be sanded flush. There are NO locating pins to insure the alignment of the bag halves so care has to be taken to be sure they remain alligned. There is an alignment tab for the nose to bag
