This month, my patrons voted on ships as the theme for my Patreon art challenge. They could use any medium and make ships of all kinds. I participated in the art challenge as well and because of the many requests I've received, I decided on an airship.

@AzraelThanatos 2 года назад

You know, one thing that could work very well just to improve the display look would be to get some cotton batting or cotton balls and tease it out to cover the top of the base with what would look like clouds, perhaps even having them rising up around the tubes used for holding it up... As a side note, airships seem like they'd fit in rather well. Just that they would cost a lot to use and you probably need a specialized dock to get on/off. And it could add other options for beasties that are taking flight over the imaginary west...

@patrikhjorth3291 2 года назад

If you're thinking about making another airship at some point, I'd like to suggest giving it propellers instead. You could make them look a bit like the wings of a windmill, but smaller. On the one hand, most if not all airships IRL use propellers, but more importantly it would set the models apart visually.

@earlware4322 2 года назад

Flipppin' awesome steam-powered airship sir!! I think that it would fit into the WIW series quite well. Though this looks to be a top of the line model that only the very rich and powerful could afford to owm and operate. Such as a group like the Pinkertons. It's a good thing you mentioned the propulsion for this ship, I was wondering if the paddle wheels you added were supposed to be impellers for turbine engines...or if you'd somehow forgotten to power this twin zepplin. 😱

@tbspaceship 2 года назад

Gorgeous work! Since this ship has guns, it does make you wonder if there are any flying monsters in this imaginary west world? Maybe giant bats or something pterodactyl like.

The rigging made such a difference to the whole esthetics of the build. Looked surprisingly pretty awesome when completed and actually fits in to the theme of the town well.

Possible canon theory to bring this ship in with the rest! It’s that “airships” are so rare that it’s thought by the common citizens to be a legend, but there are fewer than a dozen that roam the skies; the most elite people in the world. Maybe a Rockefeller type figurehead, or a Ford. Someone with so much power they could have other-worldly creations within the same time period as your western stories. Totally up for grabs if you like it!!

@NovaPheonix 2 года назад

I feel like it makes sense that the Airship is indeed a bit in the future, since as you said it has the machine guns that are a bit too new to go along with the current Wild Imaginary West. Alternatively… To double down on them being ‘myths and legends’ maybe there are folk that live high in the mountains of the Rocky’s and what not that use these airships, being very isolationist people who don’t like dealing with Outsiders. Ground dwellers can see these airships in the far distance, but can never quite detail what they are. Besides, they’re in a world of monsters.. Who’s to say they’re not just seeing one of those?

@herrakaarme Год назад

Machine guns have already been estalished there, if you check the earlier videos. There's technology present beyond mere machine guns, anyway. That being said, a machine gun isn't necessarily the best weapon for the locals. Its maintenance and operational costs are much higher than a bolt-action rifle or revolver's. Thus it makes sense machine guns would be few and far between, limited to the big players who can afford them.

@caiovalente1672 2 года назад

I think the airship could be canon and current. It's just very cutting edge, expensive and limited. Like, you'd take an airship to go to the biggest town on the edge of proper civilization, as it requires a mooring tower, advanced fuel facilities - then it's Mules to get around the West. They're a symbol of power from elsewhere, common only in metropolises far, far away. Maybe there's flying beasts too when you get into the frontier, so people don't want to risk their ultra expensive rare flying machines to go somewhere shitty, risking an attack from a pterodactyl-sized bird. Kind of how you see a model T in the beggining of red dead 1, multiple states of technology coexist. People in the west could also be heavily superstitious against airships, and maybe they're as unstable and dangerous as they were in real life.

@kelimar3014 2 года назад

Never before have I had the urge to build a model ship. Apparently today changed that.

@skonk5408 2 года назад

Airships could be a risky investment in the imaginary wild west, which would explain the low amount of them and keep most settlers bounded to the ground. Flying monsters could easily damage airships and since airships have to be pretty light, a few good hits would sink it. As far as you have explained, the Pinkertins don't seem like the really risky type, but maybe another group is more fit for the air loving adventure of a vessel like this one. Sorry to intrude on your world building, but this universe is absolutely amazing.

@soug759 2 года назад

Great, wonderfull realisation!!!

@heirofcarnage1782 2 года назад

A few air lights on the balloons would've been a lovely addition, and the hollow balloons would've been perfect to store a battery. Although that might have caused some weight issues. I will say, the airships could be something they only use in the east where the big cities are. All in all a beautiful build as always!!

@luclin92 2 года назад

yeah like they need infrastructure to be used, or hell big enough water areas so they can land and not damage the ship.

@earlware4322 2 года назад

Zepplin and airships in a large city puts me in mind of the game "Chrimson Skies". That would make for an awesome diorama, airships and planes slowly flying amongst the skyscrapers...🤔😮

@Robb1977 2 года назад

I see airships as great (albeit it expensive) alternatives to sea and land travel. There's tons of monsters like buffalo men and ambush scorpions on the land, while seas and rivers have giant gators and eldritch horrors. The sky may be one of the safest places to travel. I can see airships being used to move freight from coast to coast, especially the lower weigh-higher value stuff that trains may be robbed for.

There's something very elegant about the top "drums" where you used the wheel spokes. Almost like its the Cpt's private quarters and he wanted to be extra about it to have the best view. I like the idea that the ship is a legend as you said, because its something that a moonshiner *couldve* seen by accident one lonely night in the mountains but gets shut down as a drunk, while the Pinkertons carefuly move him to un-life for seeing their prototype.

@Any_ordinary_gamer Год назад

The fauna repellents would be vital on this ship, since they can’t tilt the Brownings far enough to hit high angle attacks, and the risk of hitting a balloon is high. But say bandits have airships which are smaller but faster, (Even w/ mid section gone, it’s still 200+ ft.) and the MG’s really can come in handy preventing boarding actions from hostiles while in air or doing a routine resupply run on the ground, since water can’t be grown like food. Tl;dr: Monster prevent important, mg limited, mg stop bad guy attack instead.

@Wilphart Год назад

It's beautiful, but the balloons aren't voluminous enough to achieve liftoff. And those wheels on the side of the ship - I think - are meant to be end pieces for paddlewheels. Without the paddles filling them out, they don't serve a purpose and look out of place. I would make a smaller ship section, and even then I'd go out of my way to make it minimalist, e.g., a strong, hollow, lightweight frame, with the walls and floor of rope mesh and netting and such. It would be the best compromise to have maximum volume and minimum weitght. Or keep the ship and triple the amount of balloonage. Visually, it's a masterpiece - but it breaks my suspension of disbelief because I strongly disbelieve it can fly. It's like instead of using an African blimp (which is non-migratory), you tethered the coconut - I mean ship - to two European blimps....

@liamjohnson2474 2 года назад

I feel like this airship definitely belongs in the wild west world you're building. Maybe it could be a one-of-a-kind wonder, built by a outlandish inventor in a small backwater somewhere. Like a Doc Brown type from Back to the Future 3, working for the Pinkertons like DARPA. I'd love to see a Tesla power station that broadcasts power, utilizing the antennas you painstakingly crafted for everything.

@neilmackenzie4394 2 года назад

As a builder of model airships, here is a tip: buy the thin, black, elastic string that is used to make bead bracelets, If you stretch it between points of rigging it stays taut for a long time. Tying thread or string can be bothersome.

@commanderwolf_gaming5191 2 года назад

You could make this air ship as something an old river boat Capt, built with help from the pinkertons ,he got tired of people tryy to raid his house, so he used his old boat and made him and air ship, so he just goes where the wind takes him. Guns are just to fight off monsters that get to close or raider's. I think if there was flying monsters they would be too hard to deal with. Mechs are probably slow, and probably to fast for air ships. So I like that it's just one person that has a crazy idea. Maybe a Doctor E. Brown (bttf) character.
