Gentleman Steampunk ATC

This steampunk swap required the use of a gentleman. I used machinery for his body, robotic arms, and treads for legs. Patterned paper and washi tape in the background, a vintage pilot photo for the head, colored pencil and fine line markers to color gears and machinery, glued on metal gears and used some glossy accents.

Unicorns



This was a swap done for the ATC's for All forum and the unicorns had to be hand drawn or hand painted. I drew mine with a Sharpie pen and colored with permanent Bic markers. I colored the horns with a yellow glaze pen, used a metallic gel pen to bring my details out in the darker colors and then used a sparkle pen to glitz up the manes and tails.
