There's a bookstore in Durham, NC that had a poster advertising zeppelin travel from Europe to North America in two days. I'm not sure if it's original, or a reproduction (probably the latter), but I still thought it was neat. If you search for "In 2 days to North America" in google images, it's the first link.

I thought it would be fun to make a sci-fi version of it, advertising travel to Neptune.

That is very cool.

Nice one, I love the 60-ish style

merrak: great idea!! i love the poster look of it, nice retro feeling.

Thanks!




The ship came out more '60's than I intended. I think the poster dates back to the 30's. Oops!

Thanks for the comments I tried to recreate the original border, but from my reference it was hard to tell if it was actually wiggly, or if that was just due to age.

Just wish we could get to Neptune in 2 days. lol

Nice concept Merrak and excellent rendition too.

Thanks!

I'm not sure if Neptune would really be such a great place to visit. I think I remember reading it has a turbulent atmosphere.

I like the concept of a galactic zeppelin. I wonder how you'd keep it from getting all derped in the vacuum of space though.

Excellent idea. Retro SF.

They have someone on staff whose sole duty is to march around the envelope with a roll of duct tape.




Thanks

Oh, good thinking. I want that job. I bet it pays good.
