Description
Packing as much firepower as a dragon, the dwarves of Ironhelm control the skies from the decks of their mighty dirigibles. Elf, demon and human alike scatter before them, unwilling to face the flanks of cannons, or indeed the massive mounted gun at the front. Sturdily constructed from the heaviest of wood and canvas, few weapons can bring a dwarf ship down.

Is there any chance to get the Balloon for the airship hollowed it out, to save on some plastic?
Sam Campbell (verified owner) –
A great suggestion, I’ll add it to our suggestion list for future development.

So amazing! Love this model. Question re: supports: looks like most of the parts will print fine without supports. Any recommendations on what parts likely need supports?
Sam Campbell (verified owner) –
The rudders on the engines may need supports.

FYI, if anyone is struggling with the propellor blades, I ended up turning on supports, flipping them upside down from their original orientation, and printing on a raft. I also second hollowing out the balloon. It is a bit top heavy.

It is indeed a bit top heavy.
Put copper electricity wire in the “pillars”. They snapped very easy.

I am almost done with printing this model.
A couple of things, as elmortero wrote, the propeller is difficult to print will try his suggestion.
The model is very top-heavy and I am having difficulties modifying the support STL files to print with a 1.5mm hole in the center so I can add a metal core. Is it possible to get the mesh files for the support columns so for those who want can add metal support in the middle?
I also second making the balloon model not filled as it will make the model top heavy.

We will add it to suggestions for further development. Another suggestion is to print the Baloon at 5% infill.

So I have a question regarding 1 part that I don’t see where it fits in. It’s the Dwarven_Airship_cannon piece.
Unlike the dwarvenairship_cannon which has pt1 and pt2, I don’t see where this piece fits on the model, and I don’t see it in the picture.

These are designed to fit in the portholes along the side.
