This is the first in a new range of Classic Airships "SHED kits." with 3D printed parts in nylon and Fine Detail resin. They include superb water-slide decals and this one has a choice of markings for either the S.S.Z.39 (recorded the longest duration operational flight) or the S.S.Z. 59 (landed on HMS Furious.)
For more details please go HERE to my website and choose the S.S.Zero...

ONE model is included but here are the two markings options...

The die-cut decal sheet even includes a few numbers for my UBIII submarine! Most of the markings are pre-cut - the rudder and elevator flashes however, need to be an exact fit so I ask for those to be cut around by hand.

Happy modelling everyone!

That is a great and interesting subject- :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1:

-some of of the RN scout airships had some glorious chequerboard patterns.

I scratch built in 1/700 an ssZ aairship nearly 20 years ago for my model of HMS Furious ( loose cannon)
and I loved the shape and the subject very much-- bought the book called ' Battlebags '
