Steampunk at Heart Lineart

Description

Steampunk at Heart :lineart:
September 25th, 2011
Sharpie and GIMP

This is the lineart for WeLoveFine's steampunk T-shirt contest (will add link later). This may look familiar--that's because it's a detail of Clockwork: Key to My Heart.

Since I wanted this design to be super symmetrical, I copied half of the heart/lock design and mirrored it so it would be perfect. Since I couldn't get the gears to be perfectly symmetrical by hand, I drew them in GIMP using the "gfig" option (under Filters > Render > Gfig). It took me all weekend to draw three gears because Gfig froze up after every line I drew. :grump: Then I just pasted all the elements together in GIMP, added transparency, and I'm working on coloring it now. :boogie:

EDIT: Colored version is here

may I use this image for a webcomic I'm planning? This looks great.
whoops, there was a glitch so I didn't know the first one went through.
