Oh my. Zulden , did you see this?
Think it can be safely said if somebody asks how to design an airborne battleship with paddlewheels, this is where you point them to have questions answered.

Quite honestly I don't think paddlewheels would be exceptionally efficient when moving through air, but in fantasy land everything is possible. And it just looks cool, and cool wins over realism in such a setting. Thank you a lot!

It would be "Ned's Circus of Marvels" by Justin Fisher.

Many thanks. I don't know if it ended up in a book - but it should be decorating the writer's wall if all went according to plan.

Thanks so much! I'm happy you think so - art is the best way to share our visions and fragments of imagination.

I totally agree! Because the imagination is limitless there will always be art with those fragmented elements! I've seen demented minds like a black desert with no sign of life!
The hope had been choked to the point individuals lose their way.....

I want a ride! Wonderful detail, and the clouds are just amazing.

Thank you! Rendering clouds and smoke has become one of my favourite parts of drawing in recent times. Not as tedious and quite different to all the technical details.
