BY DESTROYING THE CITY?!?!?! 
It's war, then.  
Also, what do the other great powers think of this act?

Well actually. I was just making reference to the new game coming out. Bioshock Infinite, where during the 1889 world fair they introduce their newest tech including a giant floating city which acted as one giant exhibit.
Just wanting you to know.

well we all know that they were defeated by the Americans after they showed their floating city named Columbia.

This is the most badass idea and comment I've seen in a couple of months.

I must find some spare time to draw it

A little different start to the Franco Prussian War or would this be the Germans finishing thier conquest ? " The war started 1870 " Nice job

The Franco-Prussian war was indeed in 1870-71 and this is a completely different situation. Historically, in 1889 on the World's Fair in Paris the Eiffel Tower was finished and opened for public attendance for the first time in history.

So I thought the Germans could bring their own "wonders" to the Fair

noo, robi wrażenie świetny klimat, naprawdę go czuć. w całości przydałoby się jednak więcej szczegółów - innymi słowy większy format, przynajmniej a4 ; ) bowiem teraz sterowiec jest zaznaczony zbyt grubymi liniami i nienaturalnie wybija się z nieba (poza tym sprawia wrażenie, jakby rzucał nań cień, co raczej nie powinno mieć miejsca xD) wybuch jest zbyt ciemny i mało zauważalny, sądzę że roztarcia gumną zrobiłyby swoje.
ale całościowo naprawdę dobry rysunek, masz wielki potencjał i radzilabym go realizować na dużych rozmiarach

JanBoruta In reply to Anako-ART [2008-04-25 11:58:30 +0000 UTC]

Tutaj chciałem postawić na stylizację, nie na realizm, stąd kontury zeppelina. Wybuch nie jest de facto wybuchem, to tylko jakby rozprysk pary wodnej - nie jest źródłem światła jak ogień. Taki mały rozmiar wybrałem, bo szybciej mi się wtedy robi, nie mówiąc o tym, że wolę skończyć szkic w szkole zamiast jeszcze ślęczeć nad nim w domu Nastęny szkolny szkic też będzie stylizowany.. nie wiem, ale mnie się podoba Za to mam zamówienie, które już realistycznie będę musiał zrobić, i to na A2, więc będziesz mogła sobie poużywać (ale to za miesiąc )

Great image. Loving all this cooling cool steampunk stuff going around.

Nice lines, action. Big explosions plus zepplins plus scifi weapons equals way past cool.

Skomentowałem to na [link] więc nie chce mi sie powtarzać. A "Lalke" doczytaj do końca. Ja doczytałem i szczerze nie żałuje. Ta książka naprawdę wpływa na światopogląd.

JanBoruta In reply to Nosveratum [2008-04-20 06:45:48 +0000 UTC]

Wokół zeppelina MUSIAŁEM przyciemnić tło, bo by się nie wyróżniał z tła i byłaby jeszcze większa kicha Zanim "Lalkę" zdążyłem doczytać my ją już omówiliśmy na lekcji zywkłej (bo wcześniej czytałem na rozszerzonym toku), więc wiem o wszystkim co się stało A książka zacna tak czy siak.

It's steampunk. Not all laws of physics are in use But a flamethower version of the steamgun zeppelin is considered.
