Artistically it's a great illustration, but technically that airship is doomed to failure without the inclusion of firearms. Watching the progression is fun to watch.

fucking awesome, once again you've done an amazing job.
I want the wallpaper, btw.
it flies because it's made out of nemoite, a material that's lighter than air. and it's italics bold underlined FANTASTIC

i want to fly on kidnemos airship.
Here are some rough sketches that inspired, or were inspired by the airship drawing above:
This robot pic I really like how it turned out, and I think the next full size piece is going to be a robot "cross-section" pic like this one:
Kidnemo, do you like Geof Darrow?

I had no idea who he was when I read your post, so I popped over to google to check it out...
and I LOVE his art!
What is funny though, is I haven't seen it, or even thought it about it for probably 15 years. When I was still a young lad and in junior or high school and reading comics all the time, I read Hard Boiled and I was totally blown away.
There was one double page layout in particular that I still remember where the main character is in a car that is shooting through a window or a wall, into this huge room with an orgy going on. There was so much detail, and sex too (which is probably a big part of why I remember it), it was just awesome.
He influenced me hugely back then and I was drawing everything super detailed just like him.
For whatever reason I quit drawing for about ten years and just started up a few years ago again.
I recently I've got back into this "little details" oriented style and couldn't remember why I loved it so much.
Thinking back I'm sure it was because of Hard Boiled and Geof Darrow.
Phew, sorry bout the long post, just typing whatever floods into my mind here.
Good looking out Doc, you brought back some great memories and I now have to track down his stuff.
That was first thing that came to mind when I saw this. The detail is a stark contrast to Washed Away's sweet simplicity.
Glad to know there's another Hard Boiled fan out there. EDIT! Oh if you haven't followed him for a few years check out Shaolin Cowboy. It's fun!
