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?

I still like it. Is the smearing effect only horizontal and vertical?

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)
