Air Ship for Pulp and VSF Games
A long shot of the zeppelin
Some months ago I succumbed to the lure of this really cool MDF air ship kit. I have been staring at the stack of MDF, cardboard, and other bits for months. Finally last weekend my daughter and I began to assemble it. During the week we began to paint the various sub assemblies. While I was gone for two days on business she completed the final assembly. Storage problems aside, this is a very nice kit and will make for some very fun Pulp and VSF games.

I staged a bunch of my Pulp figures on the air ship to shoot some photos.

The airship kit was from Rusti at Crossover Miniatures: http://crossoverminiatures.com
A slightly longer shot from the bow
This airship is in five sections: the bow, a passenger section, a cargo section, a stern section, and cone to finish the stern.

You can see some alligator clips holding sections together. The kit comes with mount points for magnets. I have to purchase some and glue them to the ship, but for now, I’m using alligator clips.

A final look
I think this will make a great centerpiece for a series of Pulp or VSF games.
My daughter did a terrific job with final assembly. I am anxious to get it into a game soon.
