Once I had a foothold in this puzzle it turned out much easier than it had looked at first - double theme helped. NACELLE and SCRIMSHAW were familiar words, but I had to check their meaning before inserting them; INEARTH was completely new to me but obvious from the wordplay. 22d is a beautiful, though tragic, clue. 24d was my last entry too - because there is a whole dynasty of them it is unusual for the FONDAs to be referred to by surname alone.

Was there a recent Enigmatist or Nimrod with populated by LITTLE GREEN MEN? Apologies in advance if this is incorrect. Nice puzzle, although the theme seems a bit familiar.

Failed on 4D though. Curiously, 11A was the first one I got, after a bit of trouble trying to (mis)spell it NARCELLE.
