Do an artist collaboration and go all out! Are the gears cast in brass and copper? What are you using for your masters- surely you arent carving each gear? I will be watching the evolution intently... looks great! I just think the Dino is over the top- and deserves the same in a maketing layout for that piece… Do an artist collaboration and go all out!

But this is just a light hearted project. It is only eight inches tall so I am afraid it is not changing the middle east conflict in the near future. What more can I say..... Kerri, What a great idea. I love the " battle-scarred and in several different fonts" bit. I would just love to get involved in a project like that. You got some seriously original imagination, dude. Judy,

Kerri,
What a great idea.
I love the ” battle-scarred and in several different fonts” bit.
I would just love to get involved in a project like that.
You got some seriously original imagination, dude.

Better yet- write a "War journal" from the perspective of the vanquished foes in the trodden wasteland this chaotic enigma produces... get it bound and charred to look battle-scarred and in several different fonts(it has been handed down from seargent to seargent as they fall- someone else picks the story up... and chronicles the attempts to subdue the fury... maybe somewhere in the pages of that codex of death lie an answer to the weak link, the potential Achilles' heel for the behemoth....) -This way- you would not only have the machine- but the field reports of those who were crushed in its self-aligned holy-war to victory... *Just a thought- it would make a KILLER selling tool as well should it turn out to become a series of pieces... Steampunk- PAX Romana- Sic Semper Tyranus! ("For the peace of Rome-as like unto tyrants!") -Love the thought and storyline it evokes- great design as well- I like the articulations! -KDuncan -You should REALLY seek an aspiring college student (or yourself) to write a book as you already have the plot line through your postings!

I know too many people, especially in the Middle East, who have lost family, friends, their livelihood, and more through the brutality and injustice of war (much of it encouraged by the country of which I am a citizen, the United States) to celebrate the destructive capabilities of weaponry. Of course, I can't (and don't want to) tell you what you can and can't design. My remarks are just another response to your artistry.
