I recently started working on some addons to turn my Pirate Fleet Builder ships into airships! The main idea is to create some wings/propellors/turbines etc. that will fit with the current ships (but could also be kitbashed to fit with other ships). Here are some sketches I made to get me starting after some research ...

I am starting with the smaller three boats of my series: rowing boat, jolly boat and gunboat. Here is the basic idea shown with the rowing boat. You have a boat (could also be 2D) and then you create a wing part. Put them together on a stand and you got an airship!

More testbuilds with the first "fan" sail/wing type. I also added color customization for the sails so I tried to match the sails with the hull colors.
First the "jollyboat" ...
... and the gunboat.
Working on more options including side (vertical) sails and rear rudder sail!

A first look at my pure paper solution for airship stands!
And a preview of the current (horizontal) wing type sails. In addition to the "fan" sails I have added what I call "plane wing" sails.
If you want to go full creative mode you could even mix front and tail wings from different version for more variety!
