~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Alright, so as you may have been able to tell, I've been in an art mode this past week. The 3rd artwork submission in a span of a week? That's rare for me to do that! At the same time, I've been doing a lot of art to get my mind off things; this past week has been hard on me but it's personal, so I probably shouldn't write about it anymore.

I love the Steampunk style. A few months ago I first saw Steampunk cosplay & it was very intriguing. I also looked up the Steampunk artwork here on DA and it's great. It seems like Steampunk style is based off the mid-to-late 1800's (and even turn-of-the-century 1900) yet the people have technology. Not technology like we have today, but they technology in the Steampunk world is used with what resources people had (in the 1800's) and steam is used to power things. It kind of reminds me Doc in Back to The Future III, how he made the ice-machine and other things out of the resources he had. So all of this inspired me to create original Steampunk character designs.

So here are two original character designs of mine. The man is Schuyler Marcetti (age 25), a sort of free-lance mercenary. The thing on his back is a sniper-rifle. The sniper-rifle I designed for him is awesome...I wanted to show it off but I figured there was no need for him to be holding a gun. His bad habit is smoking and he holding a glass of whiskey. (By the way, Schuyler is pronounced as "Sky-lar"). The lady is Faythe Varela (age 23), a law student. She is drinking mimosa. This is the first time Schuyler and Faythe meet...they are out on the balcony at a pub.

I'm very happy how this came out. It even inspired me to write a story about the two of them (just yesterday). I drew this sometime last week but I didn't colour it until yesterday. I'm pleased how everything came out. I also experimented with a different kind of lighting.

Ha ha, my title sounds like the movie "When Harry Met Sally", now that I realized it. But hey, a title is a title; I didn't base it off the movie title. It was the 1st thing that came to mind.

Drawn with a 0.03 Copic Mulitliner, then coloured in with Copic Markers and Watercolours. The white highlights were done with a gel pen.

Off-note: I'm so sad the Olympics ended.
