No, no,Two steampunkers about to duel.I simply meant it was back on. Nothing steamy about Langer's mods; just sexy CF and copper.
Hey on page 31 of this thread what program did you use to make those layouts? They are pretty nice!
+Rep, I love the build and idea
It's like JFK announcing the moon mission. He had no expertise in space travel, and no way of knowing if it would work. He just announced "we're going to the moon" and then they made it happen because everyone was on the same page and working towards the same goal. If he had said "well, let's get some people in space, and we'll see how far out we can get, and if I find someone to make a rocket strong enough, we could possibly approach the moon's orbit and maybe land" it wouldn't have happened.
Thanks a lot guys, it feels good to get my head back in the game. I'm excited to get this project finished - I want my desk space back.
I'm going to have to agree with Mach - I don't think this project is very steampunk'ish, at least that wasn't my intent. That said... I LOVE steampunk style and falling into that category is by no means a bad thing.
@knowledgegranted - All of my sketches have been drawn in Adobe Illustrator - one line at a time... it makes drawing fins take a few hours, but I like the results.
They are just simply perspective line drawings, and in reality it would be quicker to have drafted them by hand.
Below is an example of one of the more complicated concept drawings for this project that was actually drawn in perspective - the ones on pg 31 were quick sketches drawn out of perspective.
