Description Its easter baby!
I have 4 days off! What a weekend.
Just could spent a lot of time for.. sleeping. =_= I am so tired.. I think i need some real vacation.

So, this time, i wanted to draw a airship. It was really hard to get the ship "inside" the canvas...
For those who wonder what they are talking about:

"Hey, the ships gonna land in a few minutes! Lets get to the boarding"
"No, i don´t wana take that ship...."
"Why not?"
" Its almost 10 years old... it´ll break in half and i don´t wanna in there, when it happens."
"Don´t you trust our gloriouse Engineers?"
"Should i?"
"..."

Ok, something like that. I haven´t made really a story about...

Speaking of this piece, The-Necromancer wants to know why it wasn't in his favorites. We could have sworn that we'd long ago faved it. Spent ten minutes going through Our entire history of faves trying to find it for the other comment...

The over-all look of the zeppelin is very World War One, what with the cross symbol on it's side. Funny little story too!

Truly wonderful, and I know what you mean about trying to keep the ship "in canvas". Fun to draw, but they are HUGE!

Ah thanx alot for the comment!
And yes, they are really huge, so i have really some problems to get it on my canvas. And i saw your gallery too. now i know, where i get my references for my airships.
Thanx for the fav too!

Airships in general are awesome,then we had Trinity Blood come out and in the first episode they had a "super" airship flying around it was awesome XD.

Ehehe.. das Licht musste ichh komplett neu machen. Vorher war der obere Bereich Dunkel und der untere Bereich komplett hell.. Da war so eine harte Trennlinie. Am ende hab ich genauso viel Zeit verbraten wie die letzten zwei...

OOOOOOoooooooh! Sugoi desu yo!

Airships really are amazing things, and you really did an excellent job capturing this one. I am very impressed! You managed to capture a surprising amount of it in the picture, too. Excellent work!

These two really are cute, and this particular moment, with those expressions... really adorable and amusing. They do look rather concerned by something. The shadow and light work on them is very good, too.

Thanx alot. A ride on the zeppelin would be nice. But the end of life for those aircraft was before ww2 i think...
But the imagination how the enemy reacted, when this kind of vessele arrived on the battlefield, would interesst me.

SgtSareth In reply to dead-robot [2009-04-14 09:09:42 +0000 UTC]

More or less. There are some blimps used these days for a few things, and I've heard that some group would like to bring back the blimp as a trans-oceanic cargo hauler. But...

Well, we can always dream, right?

dead-robot In reply to SgtSareth [2009-04-15 07:27:39 +0000 UTC]

Hm.. that would be fine, but they aren´t really fast, so are they ecconomically reliable? I like those ships alot, too. maybe they find a good market concept.

AWESOME ZEPPELIN MAN!!!!! I don't care how old it is I would ride it!

I thought they were lost and trying to figure out which way to take the airship? I thought it would read more like:
"OK where did we land now?"
"I dunno...it looks like we are off the map."
"We should try back tracking."
"That didn't work last time."
"OK let's stop by a gas station for directions!"

dead-robot In reply to Demosthenes-101 [2009-04-14 06:28:42 +0000 UTC]

Thanx! I would ride on a zeppeline too. There are some touristic attraction in germany, but the flight cost so much (And its only a modern one and not the vintage zeppelin)

And the zeppeline on the pic is stil in landing position. So they can´t be after the flight.
She has got a map, because she wants to travel on ground.

Demosthenes-101 In reply to dead-robot [2009-04-14 07:07:40 +0000 UTC]

Hee hee! I know, I just thought it was funny. The modern zeppelins are now safer and bigger and are being used as hotels that travel. There is a big one planned that is shaped like a white whale.

dead-robot In reply to Demosthenes-101 [2009-04-15 07:30:04 +0000 UTC]

The modern ones have no more frame in the baloons.
The are more aerodynamics, so the steampunk element is gone ;__; But they are still beautiful.
o.o I would like to be on the whale looking ones!

Demosthenes-101 In reply to dead-robot [2009-04-15 09:20:53 +0000 UTC]

The whale shaped one have not been finished yet but are supposed to be in operation by 2020. I think they have pictures of it somewhere.....here:
[link]

And this news article gives info on it (apparently this is a French operation)

Perhaps this could be a new picture for you to draw?

*__* This is.... fantastic!
Hm... when i had some mill. i would buy that ship for living. Quiet expencive... So that will be my dream house. This would be a good motiv for a picture, but its hard to fit taht on a canvas. maybe from above would give that ship the full beauty.

Demosthenes-101 In reply to dead-robot [2009-04-16 07:21:48 +0000 UTC]

Maybe draw a picture of a girl in the ship looking out at another ship flying by? She can be sipping coffee or wine or something while looking out the bay window of her room perhaps?

dead-robot In reply to Demosthenes-101 [2009-04-18 13:02:20 +0000 UTC]

Hm.. that would be a good idea. Must be in a good angle and it fits wonderfully on a canvas. Maybe i´ll try that by time I think, i´ll gonna make some easy sketches ow for that. (I am a bit ld, so i have to make some notes ;_; )

Ha ha.. i haven´t even an idea for the enemy.
So i don´t want the standard russian or allied forces as the enemy. Perhaps a devided germany in ww2 style. Hm... need to think of a while.

Dr-Toszi In reply to dead-robot [2009-04-14 07:15:34 +0000 UTC]

Doesn't have to be real existing forces eh?
Make one up! Maybe with the best parts of past ones.

dead-robot In reply to Dr-Toszi [2009-04-15 07:33:50 +0000 UTC]

Hm.. thats right, but i have still to make some concept for the imagined forces. And they will need some references. Like using T-34 Tanks and so on. To invent a new army is pretty hard.
