Post any drawings you have made that do not pertain to an Alternate Universe scenario and are not a never-built design.

New computor...new versions of MSpaint and such...haven't figured out how to turn the bloody anti-aliasing off yet.

The boat-like gondola is actually the one they settled on, the aircraft style was pretty much only used on the early ones. Yeah, it probably is a bit heavier, but for some reason, in the real ones, it seems to have increased performance. go figure.

I believe that some airships (both blimps and rigid-hull) have been drawn before, and I must say that it's good to have more of them. :)

Zephyr, I'm assuming you've got Win7 paint. To turn off Anti-alias, you have to open up your performance option tab and click off 'Smooth edges of Screen Fonts', which will turn off Anti-alias for the entire computer.

Yeah, I think this one has win7 paint. not sure which older version I had before. one techie question though.... I can't find a "performance option tab". yes, I am technically challenged.

Windows 7 has it in a bit of a different place on my machine.

This could be the perfect time to change to paint.net
“Close” only counts with horseshoes, hand grenades, and tactical nuclear weapons.
That which does not kill me has made a grave tactical error

This I agree with. Paint.net offers a lot of extra features that make layouts and redesigns easier.

ok, downloaded paint.net. I'll have to play with it for a bit to get the feel for it, but I don't miss my dead photoshop6 on my dead computor now quite as much as I was.

still trying to get used to this new keyboard though, so if you see odd extraneous letters and the like, its just my chubby fingers not quite hitting where I want them to. ;)

Alrighty then. I'm about to re-re-start work on the HMS Titania aircraft carrier, now renamed the HMS Centaur. The first time I started work on the Titania my external hardrive died. The second time I started on the Titania my whole computor died. So I got a new computor. I am about to start yet again, so I just wanted to let y'all know ahead of time that if I suddenly disappear from the internet, it's because my new computor has probably exploded. :lol:
