Fanart: KuroFai Steampunk

[bottan]

Okay, redesign for Kurogane's steampunk arm -- a very small, surprisingly strong steam engine is now hidden inside his arm. I didn't even know so small steam engines existed, until I needed one! *g* Also the three holes on his upper arms are spitting steam, if he's working hard. Of course, he's always working hard, so lots of steam down there.



Because I'm shameless, I nudged Uakari to write fic for this -- and she did!! *dies happily* It's called Steam and right over at her journal! Go read it, Uakari's writing is to the point and beautiful, the story has a well spun plotline and it's even going to be multi-chaptered...!!

(Uakari, I don't know how I deserved this much goodness, thank you so much!! TT__TT)

Oh. My. God.

Please give me a second, I have to catch my breath....

I love Kurogane's new arm (the holes for steam release are full of win - I want to see them pumping!!), but I have to say Fai's hair is my favorite part about this. This is incredibly sexy and quite possibly my new favorite (okay, second favorite - nothing is ever going to top Doumeki the big pink pony) of your art works.

You did this just to temp me, didn't you?? XD

You should post this to the comm! People need to see this sexiness!

I like!

This is wonderful. >o< I especially love their eyes _{(which is a weird thing to focus on, but eh)}.

The strap that connects Kurogane's arm is wonderful. Only because it's like "Oh, the arm doesn't attach itself, there's a strap."

Er. I really, like it. It's wonderful, and I'm completely jealous of you.

I usually hate dreadlocks in artwork, but yours is A+

Thank you for doing them right! And god, do I ever love your coloring in this piece. It's soft and cross-hatchy and nnnnng. Not to mention you steam-punked them all up and in-character. I could actually see those two like this as opposed to simply dropping by some world for a quick trip. :)

I know the arm is the point of the art, but I just can't stop staring at Fai's hair-beads and ear piercings *_*

Have you read this fic? Brassweaver (http://archiveofourown.org/works/14296)

Also seconding - thirding? - the staring at Fai's beads. Because - ♥ dammit, they look good. And they're so stupidly tempting to do something with, Lord knows what my brain could suggest. ;;;
...There are certainly no complaints about Kurogane's pretty physique and arm re-design either, though. Nope. X3

Uesh, this is so gorgeous - I'm so impressed by the way you colored it. What did you use? I'm loving the jewelry in Fai's hair, the way his bangs tuck back and his expression.

So....I open this picture every time I go to write. X3

It both inspires and distracts me!! I have to stop every so often to drool over it...*droooool* And then I can go back to WORK! HUH!

[uakari120.livejournal.com]

You're killing me! You're absolutely killing me!
