Hello,

this is a cargo ship I built for Wellandel Studios.
The balloon has the shape of a zeppelin as its only purpose is to hold the ship up in the air.
For stability reasons there are claws on each side of the balloon.
Around the balloon are rings with eyelets where the ropes are tied to.
The ship rests on beams going underneath it. These beams also have eyelets to connect the ropes to the supporting structure.
The airship is propulsed by 4 jet engines. By altering the thrust on each engine the ship is moveable in every direction.
There also are 2 giant exhaust pipes on top of the balloon only because it looks awesome.
Between the balloon and the ship is enough space for a Container Crane to reach through to load and unload cargo.
For better positioning of the cargo there are 2 small cranes on the ship itself. They theoretically allow to move something from the back to the very front or vice versa.
There are 2 large cargo sections with 2 nets in each to protect the cargo from slithering around.
To defend itself the ship has 4 light turrets on each side and a heavy machine gun in the front.
To have more space available on the ship for cargo the command bridge has an own support tower outside of the ship and does not stand directly on the ship.
The ship's shape comes from a real cargo ship and to give it a steampunk look i built it out of wood and put a lot of detail on it.

Enjoy!

I don't think it's that overdetailed :P
I think it has a very nice amount of detail, not too much and not too few ^^
