But still, if I could have a say (sadly I not a good enough artist
to
do something myself), I'd really like if the Verne wallpaper had more
historical feel, something artsy, perhaps a direct development of the
original sketches with a tiny little bit of steam-punk touch.
Yes , but not Captain Nemo :)) .
The "historical feel" will not see in those waters, because is far
enough from camera.
