I wanted to create something in the steampunk genre, but given its vast scope, I decided to narrow my focus. I took inspiration for the towers and planes from the Oscar-winning short film Mr. Hublot, which is based on Stéphane Halleux’s incredible sculptures. For the tanks, I wanted a unique yet cohesive look, so I turned to Nick Carver’s work in the Rotcod Industries series, which fits beautifully into the steampunk aesthetic. To unify everything, I chose hand-painted, stylized materials inspired by the textures used by Arkane Studios in Dishonored 1 and 2.
