Steampunk Myths and Legends Entry: Daryl Dunlap

...I'll actually submit something.

This will be the 4th time I've signed up and didnt DO squat!

I love Asian architecture, so I'll be using those design elements in my image, which will currently involve the following pieces:

* Mt. Fuji in the background
* A steampunk Shogun's Castle that is being sieged
* An attacking Mongolian Army who's champion is a colossal steampunk Bengal Tiger that has catapult's and rocket launchers built into it.

* The mouth will be the furnace that powers the machine, with maybe two little sabertouth stacks for effects.
* The ears will be the primary smoke stacks.
* The shoulders will house the catapult launching mechanism. So that as a leg steps up, it loads and cocks the catapult, the next step down fires it.
* The top of the back will house the rocket launchers.
* The bridge will be in the chest, with windows that extend all the way around the mid-section, with machine gun turrets for defense.
* The tail will hold the steel balls used for the catapult. With some kind of caged delivery system to the shoulders.

*Shogun Castle will be an ice castle on the Top of Mt. Fuji above the clouds
*Some large, crystal shaped ice pieces will from the foundation of the castle as its perched on the side of the mountain.

So the shot will be kinda on the main terrace of the castle, looking out and down as the head of the machine is breaking thru the clouds. Fire blazing from the furnace in its mouth and thick black smoke rising up.
