Egg Zeppelin /easter project/

Siara · 03-14-09, 03:50 PM

With easter approaching we have a competition on sister forum- models made using chicken egg.
This is what i have come up with:

Now it will get the silver coat, and red rudders with similar markings to the real zeppelin.
Hope you like it.

Wow, where do you get all these photo etched parts? Do you custom make them yourself?

Siara · 03-15-09, 05:16 PM

Some are leftovers, some parts are scratch made.

You are an Artist.

Thanks guys!

I need to seal it now, and paint the markings. Some weathering using pigments, and washes to complete the job.
