This one is...definitely something. Let me just say I don't envy the guy who tries to follow my psychotic instructions on this one.

I borrowed Urashiman's Highwind propellers for this, as the model didn't include its own. Credit and thanks go to him for their design (and apologies if he's uncomfortable with me using them, though I'd like to think I've given anyone reading plenty of motivation to check out his work, which is all of the highest caliber).

On a side note: I was recently approached by a fellow willing to play patron to keep me designing more, and, long story short, We have a Donate Button!
If you'd like to help out, it'd keep my printer full of ink and my replacement Xacto blades plentiful.

On another side note: to the Anon who said he had the .PDO for the Fran model, I'd love to see just how badly I screwed it up, and I know other people would like some guidance, so they don't have to treat it like a puzzle, like I did.

Very nice your airship. I need a bit more of practice before try this one but It's going to be in my build list. I wonder about some of Last Exiles airships designed by you.

Hey just wanted to say Thanks! I have the main ship built, just adding some of the details (I am using it as a model for an alternate airship - with balloons!) and it went pretty well. The biggest problems actually came from some mis-marked valley/mountain folds but the whole thing is going really well.

Yeah, this was made a long time ago back before I really had any idea what I was doing. Hopefully you used the MediaFire link, as it's the most recently updated. Still not great, but better, definitely.
