It was a dream commission to illustrate such a legendary story.
I started off with lots of pencil sketches [see sketch section] to establish the look, designed it in 3D and finished it in Photoshop.

It incorporates photos and freehand illustration. I made a special trip to London to get reference shots of Big Ben, I feel its certainly one of my better efforts.

I hope I did it justice – everybody has their own idea of how the machines should or could look.
