Nice work. I might move the light-vs-dark-gray divide down a segment or two, but that's my only real gripe. Well, turn the white into the lightest of grays too. So two complaints.

Otherwise, very nice work.

That is one very fine drawing. Very fine indeed. I tend to agree with erik_t on the "white" band issue.
Other than that, thumbs up

I put the light/shadow divide where it would be if the light was from directly overhead. Each "facet" of the envelop is pretty flat instead of a smooth curve. As for the stripe, I guess it could be a touch darker. Its a very bright area in most pictures since it was unpainted canvas to allow light into the hull along the main passage ways.

Nice, second rigid airship on Shipbucket. Damn sight larger capacity then L-59 (and helium!).

Long live the Zeppelin!

Already working on the Macon, some minor differences compared to Akron, plus a different color scheme on the F9C's.
