Title: S.S. Zero Submarine Scout in 1/350th scale
Post by: Derek66 on July 28, 2016, 07:56:15 AM
 I have just put a 1/350th scale  "S.S.Zero" (https://www.shapeways.com/product/WGM566HET/s-s-zero-1-350-scale-with-display-stand) British Submarine Scout (the original "Blimp") of WW1 in my Shapeways shop (https://www.shapeways.com/shops/classicairships). I will be adding a 1/700th version shortly and plan to have models of all of the major classes of British WW1 non-rigids in the shop by the end of the year.

The S.S. Zero is an unpainted model, 3D printed in detail resin.

Detail of the gondola...

This looks interesting. I think having blimps/zeppelins in 1/350 scale would go nicely with some of the ship models out there. I seem to remember Osprey having made a book about the British airships. I will follow with interest.

I agree.  I'm very interested in this.
Cheers,

This is very good news Derrick

The North Sea Class would be particularly impressive in that scale.
