Daniel,

I think that this is a good start to an air ship.  but it needs some more
work. most air ships have large wings or a baloon or magic levatating
crystals or something to keep it afloat.  check out some other creations on
brickshelf to get some ideas on how to improve your airship. here is a link
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/search.cgi?q=airship&stype=dfic

I really like the rock wall "camaflauge" and the idea for having a catapult
on an airship.  but you should take apart the official lego design of the
ewok catapult and design your own.  The glider escape pod idea is cool too.
now you need a cool way to attach the glider to the ship for storage while
people are not using it.

The Hagrid Forestman is pretty cool with that brown outfit he definitlly
looks the part of forestmen.  The ewok attack set definitlly has a Forestmen
feel to it.

I hope that you continue to work on this airship becasue you have some neat
ideas.  I look forward to seeing any improvements you make.

John

thank you for sharing.

the model is a little bit confusing on some levels. •  It seems to me that what
make it an 'airship' is the ewok hang glider on top. is there something im
missing?  there seems to be a lot of 'borrowing' from the ewok attack
set.

Well The catipult was just for defense but the glider acts also as an escape
pod. The ship realy runs on a engine in the ship but I didnt get a pic of
that.  The glider helps it stay air born if the engine dies.
The reason I used the ewok attack stuff is cause it looks forest like

Otherwise, interesting use of rockpieces as sides for your ship.

Well that is for hideing the ship from people who hate the forest men.


If I get time I will put up pics of the whole forest and forest village.

Well between the house and the strong hold I figured Enough ground stuff for
now so I did an air ship. It is a simple model but I like. It is call forest
flyer.

(...) As many have said to take the catipult of so have you. I trimmed it down and mad my own catipult. Maybe crystals could run the ship. Anthony's Idea with the stone was good. I am trying to do some interior detail like wilsons ships. He is the (...) (23 years ago, 22-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle)
