I know I'm gonna forget to upload this later, so here it is now. xD

This is the original image from Round 4, done back in December. I've been meaning to upload it by its lonesome (as opposed to incorporated into the background) for a while now, but I keep forgetting.

Anyway, 'twas an assignment that I was able to interpret so I could use it in LoT too. About eight hours in the lab wif the cintiq back in the beginning of December, and another couple hours relentlessly whoring filters to build a lot of the gear stuff. As always, there's stuff I'd change or tidy up, but I lost the version of this with the layers intact, so alas.

Anyone not familiar with Law of Talos, it's set in a steampunk environment. This was my take on a cathedral interior in a society with a prevalent machinery/clockwork aesthetic. Gods, machines, etc. :)

This is amazingly hardcore. The gears looked like a pain to do, too. I am thoroughly impressed.

Reminds me of some of the Adaptus Mechanicus art in 40K.

Awesome job too by the way!

If there was never any war I'd be out of the job. Seeing as I work in a military history hobby shop.

Beautiful, the lighting of the entire image is gorgeous.
I see some places that simply seem less defined than others, or potentially even unfinished looking in comparison. But as a whole, the entire piece is lovely, and all those details are practically insane.

When I had seen a piece of this in your previous comic, it caught my eye. I was wondering if it was just a particularly awesome looking panel, or if it was part of a more complete piece. Looks like this would be my answer ;P

In short; awesome work :iconimhappyplz:

I like it..makes me think of Scar Symmetry- Ghost prototype II ( Deus ex Machina ), one of my favorite songs

And with dust in throat I crave
Only knowledge will I save
To the game you stay a slave

Roamer, wanderer
Nomad, vagabond
Call me what you will
