Some minor tweaks to the engines and the Sparrowhawk

Macon at the time of her loss with the removal of the water recovery system from engines 3 & 4 and with the added "perches" under the hull and the Sparrowhawks with their landing gear replaced with the long range fuel tank.

Very nice, I love airships,has anyone plans to do R100/R101?

Thanks CanisD for these incredible renditions of the only two airborne 'aircraft carriers'. I've always loved them! Even bought sometimes in the mid-80's a carton model of the ZRS-5, but apparently lost it in my move to the US from Sweden. Never got time to build it either. So, in other words: these dirigables are a most welcome contribution!

P.s. I've spotted some other 'shipbucket'-style versions of these ships, evidently in a different scale, and now, since we can compare, infinitely inferior to your work.

Canis did draw these before in a smaller scale. Also a bunch of ahistorical airships, too.

These are my older drawings from several years ago, drawn to a scale of 1 foot = 1.148 pixels. It's a screwy scale, I know, but when I started drawing warships that was the scale I had for my first drawings and being a stubborn SOB I kept the scale so I didn't have to go back and redraw the old drawings. Plus, it was easier to draw on my old monitor.

Ahhh...I see! Well, I hope I didn't trample anyone's feet by my previous comment. Of course, though the earlier ones are quite enjoyable, the most recent ones are just ever so awesome!
