In which I post the Picture of Anthony's Machine.

Indeedy. I had to take a picture of the drawing because my scanner didn't work. Anyway, here we are:



Sepia tone and wear are all for flavor. When my friend read the chapter beforehead, he said, "So it's a Nazi AT-AT?" I said, "Yeah....kinda." It ended up being a lot bigger in my mind than on paper. I originally had the idea for both Anthony's and Doom's machine when brainstorming about a story a friend was going to write. He said it was about the orcs and orc culture, and I made up an elaborate history on the spot about an orc warlord discovering steam power, and using crude steam machines to control all the other tribes. He said, quote: "I'll leave the steampunk to you." So I did. I originally started out as a steam machine being built by Laglor and Tony, but this came to me at the last second and sounded so much more negaging, so I went with that.

I'll be getting more pictures up as time goes along. Stay tuned.
