David is on fire with these images and he's completing them faster than I can get them posted.  This image is a Kin Hammer, something found in the steampunky-goodness of this book.  I love David's tech designs, they are too incredible!

Hey folks!

David has finished up another great image for the book, this one of the ship's sniper in action.  Its amazing how fast he's moving on this, and we are getting some really incredible work that takes me back to bygone days each time I see a new one.  Enjoy!

We just got a huge supply of parts!

Yep, its true, we're now funded for the project!  All the ship parts are in place, now we just have to see how many more great illustrations we can get out of David to make this a fully illustrated novel!  As is, I'm liking what is already rolling out of his studio.  Thanks again to all the backers so far, you are making magic happen!
