First allow me to start off by saying that I did not draw this piece, it was the very talented that did the lineart for this. I begged for her to allow me to do a collaboration with her. So here you are all.
I really love the concept of Steampunk, the sky always seems the limit for how far your creative boundaries can go. Even the most linear of characters can be reimagined.
GAH! Your version is EPIC! I freakin' love the colours you chose for him! Ciel looks amazing in navy and that darkened almost rusty gold! What you do with textures is so cool and I need to learn how to do that in photoshop, like badly! I also adore the detailing you did to his monocle and the funky effect of the Faustian contract mark showing through it. Thank you for doing something so wonderful to my line art, I ed this in a second! <3 ^_^
