Hi Guys,
This is my first Project on Planetminecraft and i am very excited to upload more Projects and Builds!
About the L2
The L2/LZ18 was an airship in the service of the imperial German Navy during World War 1. It had a full lenght of 158 meters and its top speed was at 76km/h.The first flight was on September 6th 1913 with a crew of 15 men : The commander, the Navyengineer and 13 Crewmen. Its empty weight was 20,185 kg (44,500 lb). It had 4 Maybach C-X engines, 2 on each main gondola. The L2 had in total 3 gondolas : on the front was the tiny Observation gondola wich was equipped with a powerful headlight. The front steering gondola was the main Part of the Airship, from there the Zeppelin was steered. The second main gondola on the rear could perform the tasks of the front steering gondola if needed, but normally it was just a second gondola for the crew. The L2 found its end on the 17th of october 1913, one of the engines didnt start and catched fire over the airfield. the airship did go up to 610 meters, where the gasbags exploded due to the fire and the L2 crashed into the ground on the airfield.Source

It didnt take too long to biuld it in-game because i had help from a friend.

I did it on minecraft PE with the Faithful Texture pack.

Welcome to the airship club! Nice first project. If you're looking to make more rounded objects you can try the link below. Before I really understood how to make a rounded object plotz was my go to tool for measurements. Keep up the great work and practice makes perfect.
