HMASS-16BE2.C (Airship Model)
« on: August 28, 2013, 11:23:25 AM »
I know a guy that has a scratch built airship. It is absolutely  beautiful. I would post pictures, but I'm new here and not keen on how to do it through a html code.  But please go to the link below to look at it. It is a job very well done...

That is an impressive model. I wonder if the builder could be encouraged to post photos and some information regarding the construction on this website.

 The construction of this model was covered on Great War Aviation Forum. That forum is now temporarily closed due to computer server problems.

It would be nice to have more people interested in the hobby. I haven't seen him in a month on the forum. Maybe he will be back soon and can post a full description of it. We need new members on the site...

Yes it is! He did an awesome job on this. But I think he has to keep it outside due to size of it. I love it, I'm glad he posted it in my forum so that I could share it with you all!
