It is funny in a way that he included the Victorian Megaship thing, as imho that is a bad piece of art. As the ship doesn't properly work in various ways, that it looks so much like AI (including the nonsensical rigging, the weird perspective, the smaller boats on direct collision course, and all the other things that make no sense, size wise or wind direction wise), it just isn't that great. It also has that AI art feel where on first glance you go 'huh, that looks interesting' and then it gets worse and worse the longer you look at it. (which makes sense in some ways as it was a quick piece done by the artist).

yeah, any picture i got wrong in his thing i thought "this is stock image shit, i couldn't care less whether it was synthesised or industrially produced"

It's a very "steampunk (derogatory)" picture, like something I would have found on sale in the artist room of the science-fiction convention that convinced me I don't like science-fiction conventions very much.
