My kit came with a huge wall poster which shows pictures of a built up model. From it you can get a glint of where the lines are. Also there are numerous photographs on the web of the Zeppelins. A quick measure starting from the aft end of the docking cone..(in inches) 1, 2.25, 4, 6, 11, 14, 18, 21...you get the pattern. Closer together at the ends, wider in the middle.

Could you approximate the measurements (fore to aft) of where to place the panels and the vertical ribs? Thanks!
