Description
This is my very first original character I've created.
A fanbot inspired by the band Steam Powered GiraffeA little backstory:
In the 1930s, one of the leading causes of deaths was from coal miners and chimney sweeps getting lung cancer
from breathing in coal dust on-the-job.
In 1939, Robotics engineer, Dr. Carl Dudley, created the chimney sweep automaton, Cole, (play on words from the word ‘coal’) in attempt to lessen the amount of lung cancer deaths.
Cole was first debuted at the World’s Fair “Building The World of Tomorrow” in New York, 1940
Cole is hard-working, shy, afraid of heights (ironically), and self-conscience about the fact that he malfunctions quite often

Not a problem. I'm a steampunk nut and I have a soft spot for robots, so this little guy just melts my heart.
Also, SPG is amazing. Just saying.

That is just too cool! A Automaton Chimney Sweep? Very inventive and I like the choice of Materials chosen for it. Very awesome. The Sepia tone also adds a degree of Steampunk to it.
