โI have my own sins to atone for,โ he said, tilting his head as though a new idea had come to him. โAnd she is not my master.โ
โI have regrets,โ he explained, โof my erstwhile life, squandered. So many transgressions. My judgment is this body of gears and blades.โ
Geartooth nodded his head rigidly. โA gear turns within my chest, carved from the ruby heart of a golem. It is there my soul resides.โ The horror of Geartooth was not his death, but his life. He was as a ghost, faintly inhabiting a body of brass and gears.

Drawing this one was fun. It's one of those drawings I wish I could go back to so I could tinker it, fix it up, and upgrade it to full colors. As it is right now it's just a colored sketch, with perhaps too much shine on the shiny parts. I like this sort of pictures, with a small character in a wide background, because you can make something fun with the background, even if it's just the interior of a rusty, rundown tool shed.
Fairly happy with the end result, to be honest.
You can check the "making of" post on Tumblr right here.
I hope you guys enjoy the picture!
