...and 2) a closeup of the water recovery units (why I did these I don't know. In most distant shots of the original airships, they looked like giant windows. A close-up photo I found revealed their true shape).

FYI these units were put on airships to recover water from fuel exhaust. The idea was to recapture as much of the original weight of the fuel in water so the ship could more easily maintain equilibrium. They look nice, but I doubt I'll have too many close-ups of these. They will eat up render time! :-)

The engines and bracing wires are next up!
