Steam mech drawing

I got an iPad last year, and I've really enjoyed playing around with ProCreate. It's so much more forgiving than traditional media. There's a lot of hidden depth to the program.

This picture is of an Adyron steam mech, ready for action. It's a basic version without some of the fancy (and unorthodox) features that Sir Bentham's mech had.

I did a number of pictures for the book, just black and white ink scribbles.

I wanted them to be very loose, just impressions. I am not sure how well they fulfilled their function.

Theo with Ollie, the spotter bird. He's supposed to be in the foreground. I thought that came across, but some people think he's a gigantic 20 foot tall terror bird.

Ollie would like that.
