The first of her line of Battleship, The H.M.S Iron Duke, is famous for the assasination of the last Emperor of Cerulean Empire during her launch ceremonary.


The Iron Duke was the fastest and best armored ship in the Cerulean skyfleet. Her twelve 16'in guns together with her state of the art fire control and rader systems, make her the deadliest ship in the Cerulean Empire.


As the most modern and best equiped ship of her day, she was penciled in as the new flagship for the Empire skyfleet even before her launch, following the tradion of the Cerulean Empire, the ship and her captain along with all her commissioned officers were made knights of the Empire by the emperor during her launch ceremonary.


Thats was when the emperor was shot by a suspected pirate sniper who managed to got away. The death of the Emperor made her the last knight, as the empire collapsed before a new emperor took the throne

She was put under command of Admiral Albert Graf von Spee in the hunt for the sky pirates, the Sky Raiders, the suspects of the crime.

8 months after her launch, she engaged the Sky Raiders' ship, Raider in a duel in which she was destroyed with the Raider.

Might I ask where you got the inspiration for this exceptional piece? I am currently underway writing a book that has these same elements that you currently use. In fact, they scream what I am currently thinking of. And if by chance, could I borrow some of the ideas?

Inspirations come from many areas like Japanese anime, and the history of our world hahah~

And even if I lend you, how can u "return" it hahaah. Be inspired, but please try not to copy everything :)

Oh no no no. That would be bad. I always loved the old U.S. steel battleships, like the U.S.S. Maine and Olympia, which is what your art reminded me of. That is what I am roughly basing my ideas off of. :)

Wow, this is amazing, the detail, the atmosphere, I'm amazed by how you got so many seemingly conflicting subjects to blend together so seamlessly. I just don't have a good enough eye to find anything wrong.
Quick question, how did you decide to give everything a pink tone? It clearly works, but its not the first thing I would think of.
