Madame Givenchy studies the drawings on the workshop desk ...
While Cantor explains the how the carriage works to the King and Brother James - apparently an application of a perpetual motion device to power the front wheel drive.

Great use of this model. Can we hope to see a balloon soon?
You always amaze and please...
seconding the previous comments. That's an unusual vehicle, but looks like the kind of horseless carriage (if such a thing existed) one might expect to find in the 18th century.
I like all the extra touches in your scenes, too; such as the various drawings, and the small table with goblets and bottles.
Fascinating stuff - can't wait for more...
Another brilliant little post!
An amazing combination of originality, 'realism' and the eye for details!
I second the suggestion of some form of 'evolved' (dirigible) montgolfiere / charliere... The 'rococo' decoration of the gondola would probably be the harder part.
Re. 18th C. Dirigibles, as a first modeling project, this one should probably be over-ambitious -so much the more as to look 'Lace Wars' it would need exuberant rococo decoration, just like a royal coach :)
Now, another possible source of Lacepunk inspiration...
You responded admirably to the challenge, lets see what I can find next.
The word around the palace is that Cantor is indeed planning a hot air balloon of some form.

Cheers!
Maybe at first a prototype like these, then a fully developed dirigible airship?
The Aether Winds, Orgone, Vril... are so much more elegant sources of power than this dirty, noisy, nauseating 'steam engines'!
'tis withcraft methinks
