I'm trying really hard to decide which is better, the art or the accompanying explanation of the art.

Great, now I'm laughing hysterically at work and my coworkers think I'm crazier than I really am.

Thank you! The text was a last-minute idea, and as such I wasn't sure if it worked, so I'm glad you thought it did. :D

OMFG, I had so much fun designing the clothes. I'd totally wear those trousers too. And Sirius's coat. My only concern is that maybe there should be more brass bits? XD

more brass bits would be sexy. :D

Yay for both the art and the explanation, which is oh so deliciously dry and witty at the same time.

Have you been reading Larklight, Fera? ;)

Seriously, this is awesome, the text and the picture both. I love the symbolic positioning of Sirius's dagger. >:)

No, actually (although it looks fucking awesome, and I love the Mortal Engines books). I've just been hanging around way too many cosplay forums and fantasising about owning a ray gun and a zeppelin.

Anyway, thank you. Glad you spotted the blatant phallic imagery. I had to recolour that thing a bunch of times because it was too obvious. XD

You know how much I love blatant phallic imagery. :D

Seriously, Larklight is great -- lots of lovely Victorian steampunky goodness. And conflicting metanarratives placed in dialogical relation to each other in order to undermine Imperialist discourses. Or some such.

(I hate it when my thesis eats my brain.)

I need more cock-related icons, I always end up using this one. :D

This is great! I love the pattern you've used on Sirius' coat. Oh and the fact that his leg is at that jaunty angle XD
Remus looks so cheeky and omg he has adorable little glasses hanging out his pocket! Also is the line down Remus' leg from his trousers or is he wearing some of those old fashioned tights with the lines sewn in? :D
Sirius is valiantly trying to hide the fact he's being groped by Remus but alas, his surprised!hand gives him away.

The line on Remus's leg is a product of me not being able to decide whether to dress him in spats or not. XD In the end I decided he's wearing sort of semi-spats, semi-socks, that fasten at the top. Whether such a garment ever existed is another matter.

Anyway, thank you so much.
