do it in the summer time. July month, in that month it's hot, it's like Italy, Swiss and Germany in one place, what many lovely BBQ party and nice music along the beaches.
And a big tip: rent a bike or take with you'r own.

Thanks for the tips!
These next two are the results of lazy drawing and pressure from uni work; not very impressive, but still interesting!
A VIIc U-Boat, which is a rehash of a drawing of mine from 2010 to conform in scale with the rest of my creations!
My second offering is a size comparison, demonstrating the sheer size of these machines. I drew myself, my house, my car (2003 Ford Escape), my family's boat and an Arado AR-196 (From my upcoming Bismarck) and put them against Olympic, Hindenburg and the VIIc. Please note i accidentally made my house a little too tall and have recently amended this.
Also, the Hindenburg tail section featured is a WIP from a couple of weeks ago when I included it just for kicks, I'll probably re-do the whole size comparison thing later to include my drawing of SS Nomadic anyway.

Cheers!
I was surprised at Hindenburg's sheer size; it totally towers over Titanic's stern which itself totally towers over my house!
