Artist's Comments

Here's another steampunky idea. I thought the port of Hartlepool in the northeast of England would be a fitting location for a steampunk picture. It was a huge shipbuilding centre in Victorian times, and must have been an amazing sight in its heyday.


I'm not happy with the placement of the figures, but can't see a way of rearranging them without obscuring too much of the back and midground.

steampunk is cool, there simply isn't enough (that's well done). love the "murkiness/blottiness" of this image, it really lends to the feel of the weather and sets the atmosphere.

This rain effect is amazing work!
The technique for me is elusive, so it's sort of "magic".

I really like the lantern, too.

In my opinion, the placement of the figures is fine.
It's not a strange composition, but there IS something
different about it.
Different in a way that keeps me locked in looking at this scene.

Well done!!
:)
