Wolsung by Poentje
Airship + building
The last couple of weeks I’ve been printing the airship. It still isn’t finished completely but I’m making some progress. The blimp is complete (and weighs in at 2050 grams). The 1st level of the hull is complete except for the interior walls. The 3rd level of the hull is also complete except for the railings. Here are some pics with a Wolsung mini for scale.
Blimp
Hull level 1
Hull level 3I need to fill some gaps before I can paint the airship. I think I will use Milliput for this. If anybody has a better idea, please let me know.
Also I have built a block of flats, I bought two kits at Micro Art Studios. I have split them up in a 1-story and 3-story building. The smallest of the two is finished. For the larger building I need more coffeestirrers for the wooden floor on the ground level. So on monday I’ll have an office day (I work at a coffee company) and take some home with me :-).
The blimp is really coming along well but it is the wall paper in the Residential interiors that I’m in love with.
I just did a Google search on the old interwebs. I think I searched for “Victorian wallpaper paterns” and “printable wallpaper patterns”. Printed them on my laserprinter and cut them to size. Then i glued them in with tacky glue (applied to the walls, not to the paper). When it was dry I could cut out the doors and windows and fit them in.
Looks cool. are you planning to do weathering ?I recommend chalk powder it gives very natural loo and patterns on paper,
Haven’t thought of it yet. By chalk powder you mean the stuff the gymnasts put on their hands for better grip? I do have some pigment powders I could use for weathering.
hej!
yes pigment powder is what you buy in shop or chal if you do it yourself
