Experimentation

So I saw the movie “The Golden Compass” and couldn’t get over the visuals in the film.  I immediately fell in love with the Victorian era  clockwork machinery look of the equipment used in the film.  Being inspired, I decided to draw a zeppelin, but my normal graphic style wasn’t going to cut it.  I decided to take a stab at digital painting, and this is what I came up with.

Steampunk Blimp

It’s not perfect, or finished.  I want to keep refining it and playing with the style but overall I’m happy with the way it’s turning out.

Just wanted to share a work in progress with you folks, the fine members of the internets.
