Zeppelin
Well I thought I would post some pictures of the board we are building for a pulp game. Me and my young brother are building it between us.
We thought we would try something a little different. We are not even sure if it is going to work but we thought we would try anyway.
My brother started a while ago and has got a lot further with his bit than me but I will show you his photos after I show you my progress.
It is all made out mounting card so far.







Started gluing it all together which is a pain, keeps falling apart halfway through.











Now I have shown the amateur version here is the professional version.




























Loads more to do.
We are going to try a mock up and a .45 game tomorrow to see if it is all going to work.
Any ideas or comments welcome

Okay, now you're killing me, you mad Scotsman. Laugh  Love

EDIT: Remembered one thing - I assume you'll do it modular, so please, pretty please add an airplane hangar with a suspended fighter craft on a girder beam and roller assembly.

Previous commentors have used up all the good words to describe this... awesome, insane, mad, etc...  Laugh

Our group had talked about doing modular zeppelin sections when we started pulp a few years ago, but like many ambitious plans they never got very far. Perhaps I'll start up again, at least do a control cabin or something!

Very, very cool. Looking forward to lots more WiP photos and a spectacular finished product!
