    Default September-October Challenge: USS New York

    Okay, I really like the idea and the opportunity, so I am going to try and participate--let's hope I can finish it.

    My idea: The earth has become uninhabitable, resulting in the launch of several massive City-Ships. The USS New York, five connected domes each corresponding to one borough, heads up the fleet of American city-ships. Her figure head, (the statue of) Liberty points the way toward the stars and a bright future.

    I'm trying to get a rough shape for the city-ship's structure before I start doing the domed city bits themselves. I think I've decided that I want the ship to slightly resemble a giant eagle (U.S.A.!) but I am thinking I might have to throw the design out though because, hey, where did earth come up with all this metal? Strip-mined the core? Melted down every last Ipod?

    Great idea! It kinda reminds me of the Starship UK from Doctor Who. But at least it is a more positive P-A themed map.
