Steampunk Mind - Blog Posts

Steampunk mind wip!!

Ok so i have the lineart + rough colors. I’ll add the eye details and eyebrows later bc i simply cannot be bothered rn

Also i finally figured out how to get better lineart :D its like crusty and smooth at the same time and i am very proud of it

Long ass ramble about this after cut :) I am actually losing it. Also I might add some grammar to this in the morning. It’s 2 am rn.

I am trying so hard to figure out this design. like at this point I’m actually going insane over this bc like YESS I NEED THAT IN MY LIFE but ougghhh… gears are small and I must make it look like it would actually function or I will cry. I also have no idea how mechanical stuff works so I have to research first hrrrggh

Ok so like he still has the white bc he gets an outer porcelain layer as a decorative cover, but instead of the like cheek tooth window thing (it’s the middle of the night I can’t make words rn) it would be exposed gears and pistons. And also exposed teeth bc teeth are cool.

I don’t really know how his arms would work because the weird bone twisty thing arms do is honestly fucked up and I hate it and my brain cannot figure out how to make it work with metal thingys.

And he would have an exposed gear mechanism on his chest and it would essentially be his heart and I feel like if you stuck a pencil in it he would spontaneously combust so maybe heart doesn’t need a gun with steampunk mind???

Also about the porcelain bc I love ceramics, he’s totally built like a fancy dinner set. Think chinoiserie patterns with the blue on white designs but make it art nouveau with the whiplash lines and florals. Also he paints them himself so it’s entirely customizable.

But like you see the vision right?? The delicate porcelain contrasting with the machinery and like even the colors contrast so it’s even better. And the whole mind trying to cover up the rough metal with something that’s “more appealing”

I dunno if it still qualifies as steampunk at this point but like the machinery that is still exposed will totally be steampunk so whatever.

Holy shit it’s late I and going to try to sleep while this plagues my mind and I will hopefully make some concept sketches sometime tomorrow bc writing this all down helped me figure out how I want to draw him.

Okay, so. We've all seen Mind as a cyper-punk like robot. But, hear me out on this, what about a steam-punk Mind? What would it look like if Mind was made of copper and/or bronze? Someone please make art of this.
