So this is my first airship and also my first submission.

The Meijingarde shuttle is a light personnel carrier, meant to move between cities and carry a small number of passengers. A small balloon underneath helps provide lift, and the propulsion method would be some sort of jet power. (Glowstone power?)

I designed this after studying Khanaris's small shuttles to try and understand how to add more detail to the exteriors.

Note: On the fourth photo, the airship visible out the cockpit is Rova's Etherwind Spellship. I built it from the schematic.

Please let me know what you think!

I think you are getting it! The goal is something that is immediately obvious when viewed from a distance and doesn't lose too much definition when you get closer. I really like how open the cockpit turned out, even in such a small ship.

Slabs and staircases are invaluable for this sort of work. The inverted staircases from the latest snapshot also really help out with detail on this scale.

Thank you! I'm really excited to use inverted stairs; I've got a few ideas that I think will put them to good use.

Thank you! I was trying to keep the design small and easy to build. Going to try something a bit larger/smoother looking for my next design.
