copyright © 2008 "Machina Obscura"
=========================
The Colonial Steamship "Phantom" was commisioned by the NCC (New Central Commonwealth) to be the first ship ever trying to cross the Stormwall using one of the three vortex' (I will submit an interesting world map soon and then you know what I am talking about
To this day, the CSS "Phantom" dominates the virgin skies with its supreme force and ensures the claim to power of the Commonwealths' Colonies.
The Phantom recieved its memorable name by being what she is - a phantom. Despite of the ships' enourmous size, its Air Screws and - Turbines run at an incredibly silent rate, only to be heard by crewmembers of other ships when it is almost too late. Additional to that, the Phantom is equipped with a new and highly secret government project called the "Sky Sonar", enabling her to scent out enemy ships and other obstacles in even the thickest fog.

Y'know, I've seen lots of these steampunk airship designs, but this is one really stands out for me. Great composition and details.

That is spectacular. I shall steal a quote from Castle in the Sky by saying "what a magnificent ship!".

thx ^^ after all, without a personal history, a machine such as this is just a collection of metal, and has no soul. ^^^
