Imagine you have been comissioned to do video games based on the aviation world of the 1930
A world of danger advanture, air pirates, zepellins and crazy air machines... (similar to the Indiana Jones universe, but where Jet packs, giant air machines and robot hechmen are a reality)

Join us as the Queen of the Rocketmen and her band of merry men fight the evil air pirates in the air above the South Pacific.

Let's start with the bad guys...hehe. Whereby I honestly didn't read the description all the way through and went at a basic principle... lots of fun, though! This is really just a design idea and not a fancy presentation...

(40min, Artrage)

Those are "bad" airvateers, pirates, who got their hands on gas tanks and pretty much improvised the rest. They are more dangerous than they look as they can go as fast as the wind, literally, while having heavy arms in all directions with the bottom cannon battery. Their flexibility is that they don't rely on the fancy technology of others and can quickly repair damages. And, of course, they're all jackasses. :beer:

About 2 hours in 3D Studio Max and Photoshop. This is supposed to depict the Queens mansion, being pulled by a beat up Messerschmidt. Since the island only has upward thrust, the plane needs to pull it along. I hope I got the color palette right, and the mood.

Hey guys, I figured I'd give this topic a try, so here it is.
I was going for a small but fast airship, one that could get out of any tight situation.
Hope you like about an 1hr and 30min, using PS.:p

This was done with construction paper, glue, tape, a pencil, yarn, and scissors. It took 2 hours and 15 min.

Yeap, Its a WWII X-Fighter... I was after a Tie-Fighter version but wasnt flyable, that thing will drop like a rock. Also this one with some little wings on front maybe its plausible
