Just in case you haven't had a chance to check out the Black Projects GB, here's a few pictures of my entry, the German Zeppelin L 143 the "Black Raider".









You can see more pictures and read the backstory Here.

Enjoy!

The L 143 "Black Raider" can be thought of as a prequel to the deflating tale of Baron von Blimpen:

Oh I like that.

Britain faced the aerial threat of German invasion by deploying the Airbourne Leviathan HMS Warspout south of Windsor.....1940 onwards....

Scale? Well, I'm sure they have a scale.  ;D

For the ones from 1/350 subs, I figure they'd scale out to somewhere around 1/840 or so. I get this by comparing them to the classic Revell 1/720 Hindenburg kit.

Glad you guys liked this one. I had a blast building it!
