1/350 P & Q Class Zeppelins




I'm hoping for the even bigger R Class.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

1/144 Lun Ekranoplan.  Another biggy, about the same size as a 1/72 Victor.

That's got to be a LOT of plastic and PE!  :o
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

OK then folks, what could we whiff a floating dry dock into?

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

My thoughts exactly!  :thumbsup:  If only this had come out way earlier when I could have used it for my USS Louisiana MONTANA battleship build. But.........too late now. :(
But would it really be wide enough to hold a modern CVN carrier? Doubtful.
Modeling isn't just about how good the gluing or painting, etc. looks. It's also about how creative and imaginative you can be with a subject.
My modeling philosophy is: Don't build what everyone else has done. Build instead what nobody has seen or done before.

I remember the build articles for that in the Airfix Magazine, back in the day when it was the smaller format which makes it in the 70's, nice idea but you would need a hanger to do the full thing in 1/350, or a dry dock  :rolleyes:

Maybe one two sections, if you want to do the whole harbour you buy more and start the divorce proceedings...
