Edit: holy cow, I expected there would be a few space nuts here but I am in awe of the knowledge on display. You people rock!
That looks like a P21 “rotring” bearcup thruster using the TL86 downward lift variant first shown in Popular Mechanics in 1998 when the Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer’s table.
What an absolutely beautiful illustration, I hope to see more of your work! ☺️
Thank you! Comments like this are what keep them coming.
How do you like the dip pen? I’ve never used one before but they seem neat!
It’s very different from the technical pen I’m used to. Easier to make mistakes, harder to control, prone to big blobs of ink going everywhere, and the ink I use dries much more slowly which is a serious hand-smudging hazard.
That all said, I love that you can get different line qualities with the same tool. It makes what you’re drawing much more expressive.
And there’s also something appealing about the fact that a pen nib will never change or be out of stock or upgraded or updated. It’s just a metal stick with a slot cut in it. It’s cheap, and apart from slow changes in ink technology, essentially eternal.
Interesting, thank you for sharing your thoughts!
You mean it’s gone this far without a name? That’s so sad. Let’s call it Jeff.
This is the answer that matters.

No, thank you- I’ve been looking for a new desktop background, hehe.
Looks like the Rocketdyne J-2, third stage of the Saturn V
Ten points!
Not my field of expertise, but is that from the third stage of Saturn V (S-IVB)?
Bingo! As seen in Houston, TX.
The lines on the body scream Saturn V. Looks like the crew module?
Close, one down from that: third stage.
