Description So I was like browsing the internet for history to read, as I'm currently studying for my finals in 3 weeks, and happened upon a drawthread in /tg/.

One particular request caught my eye, and that was the Engineer as an Adeptus Mechanicus techpriest, wielding two of the new weapons for him. (A mechanical hand and a snazzy steampunk shotgun)

I was all too happy to comply, I needed the break from the Renaissance and the Industrial Revolution. Practiced more colouring, shading and lightsources with this one.

Update: helped point out that the original head and shotgun were not holding the overall style together. I also noticed that I had drawn the Gunslinger (bionic hand) and the Frontier Justice (shotgun) completely wrong, so I updated them aswell.

You have made metal pretty real and convincing, but the cloth still needs your attention. Maybe not in this particular picture, but in the next ones

It's a weapon among so many others, really. I just like the change of pace the Gunslinger brings. A frontline engineers gameplay style is a bit more hectic.

And that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosophy.

But I solve practical problems.
