Okay, I just had to abuse some rendering options I've been playing with
lately. I've overdone it again, with my excessive use of media lights
and focal blur. It doesn't help that I spread the glare effects so far
out, and gave the image extra interpolation between pixels along the
way.... It all conspires to remove tiny details from the final image.
As for the ship itself.... well it's highly fictional. A ship like this
would only be useful in low-pressure atmospheres :)
Q's, C's?

Very enjoyable. Understated work with texture. The decayed noise of
the ground works well against the quite clean texture of the craft and
the diffuse atmosheric effect.

Thanks. The smearing is mainly vertical and horizontal, with a small
amount of omnidirectional jitter.

With enough power such a design (while being a little extravagant) could
really work.... but it would be subject to even mild winds. They don't
build bridges with sides like this anymore for a good reason :c)
