Manned Cloud

[gothwalk]

Manned Cloud is a flying hotel proposed by French designer Jean-Marie Massaud.

I want this to be built. For one thing, it looks exactly like the space whales on the cover of Dragon that made me buy Spelljammer, yea, these many moons ago.

OOOOH.
Post to gears_and_steam, please! I know there's no steam involved, but airships always get a free pass. :)

wow, Dragon magazine. that brings back memories. does it still exist? i had three years of issues 'lost' by my mother when we moved house. i wasn't too upset, i was obsessed by warhammer by then. i still have a cover from one of the Dragon christmas editions with santa riding a dragon in a scrapbook somewhere.

Sadly, Dragon Magazine came to an end last year. I have the first 200 issues as PDFs on CD, and everything except the very last few in hard copy. As soon as I collect the rest from my Friendly Local Gaming Shop, I'll have all of them.

My thesis was on airships, if you want I can bore you for hours on the subject ;)
