Steampunk Scarecrow, this scarecrow has been modified to be a functional machine.my goal for this skin is a top three spot i know that probably sounds like i'm getting ahead of myself, i should just be wanting to get to be a contestant, right, well i figured the higher my expectations the better job i would do. i must say i'm quite happy with how it turned out.
last time i was low on my concept and i'm hoping to make up for that with this skin.
my first thought when i saw that the contest theme was steampunk. i was like Alright! i love steampunk this will be a slam dunk all i'l have to do is make some awesome dude with goggles and a vest, and maybe some mechanical parts. then i remembered what happened when i took that path with the last contest and scored low on my concept. so i've created something out of the ordinary.
The Legend of the Steampunk Steam Powered Scarecrow:in a world much the same as ours, history took a different roll, and almost everything more or less was powered by steam. but the land was chaotic and riots and wars began to arise. in the greatest longest lasting war of them all, people were in a scrap to find new technology in order to get the upper hand on their opponent. the steampunk scarecrow was one of those inventions, farmers who were involved in the war often rigged there scarecrows into functional machines, solely powered by steam. the scarecrows were used in numerous ways, carrying ammo to troops, or operating ships or other machinery, though rarely used as infantry.
if you didn't know what a certain thing about the skin was...
-gears to move his arms (top of his arms)
-goggles (on the front face top of his head)
-air ventilation tubes (run alongside of his outer leg)
-exhaust (on his right side of his back)
-mechanical hands (his hands)
