This huge flying city remains airbourne most of the time, it’s people living and working in the sky.
Small, one-man, motor balloons patrol the surrounding airspace checking the weather and spotting air pirates.
The city can land in large flat areas, arriving like a huge state fair, with visitors travelling from miles around to buy exotic goods and weird machinery.
The large theatrical entrance at the base of the city welcomes the earth-bound for a taste of the strange city’s freedoms.
Inspired in no small part by Laputa from Gulliver’s Travels, with a debt to Miyazaki.
This is a large one at approx. 841mm (width) x 594mm (height)
(33.1inches x 23.4inches)
I drew it using Rotring Isograph Pens.
Here are some close ups to see more detail:
