Wow! The whole back story was enough, without the picture! I love this kind of stuff, and its a really good set-up for an awesome western.
The picture in the whole is good, I love the backdrop a lot! Makes me want to go out west sometime, get away from cold New York.. Plus the shoes..(I have a thing for really unique looking boots lol) Details in the mechanical arm is fantastic... only thing is, does he have pupils? I can't really tell
I really can't wait to see if you do more with this... its bloody wonderful!

That is so cool! I have to admit, when I saw Coop in the title the first thing my mind jumped to was Megas XLR, but this is great. His arm sort of reminds me of automail, but at the same time it's different because it looks much less streamlined and perfected. This could be the start of something amazing!
Also, how was your Halloween?

I don't see why that lady was so upset, it wasn't like they actually killed her.
I'm hoping.
It has been my dream to do a Western Sci-Fi thing, perhaps with my recent reintroduction to Steampunk I will finally be able to do something with other characters I have created in the past year or so!
Also yes I know that because its a mechanical arm, its similar to FMA's Automail, but this thing is steam powered, as opposed to whatever it is that makes automail work in the FMA universe, haha.
Consequently, the arms is a bit heavy, and heats up a whole hell of a lot.
My Halloween...was...alright, no complaints. I'm done with it though for the year.
Aside from a project I'm doing, but that's beside the point!
^^
That would be great! I seriously think you have something here. Stick with it!
What exactly does Automail run on anyway? The steam is an awesome idea; it gives Riley the dynamic of having something that is both a strength and a weakness, something that most original characters lack sadly.
Same here. I was pretty disappointed, we had four trick-or-treaters at my house. On the other hand, that just means more candy for me.

Oh I see!
Automail is hooked directly into the nerve center of the body of the "host" in question.
Well...I think I like my steam powered one just a bit better,
Not sure how he manipulates it, but I'm sure I can figure something out haha
Well, to be honest I'm not really big on the whole handing out candy thing anyway. Still back in the day, we used to get at least twenty. Alas, the curse of not living in either a city or a suburban development...
Could he maybe manipulate it through various movements with his shoulder? Wait, does he have a shoulder? I'm not looking at the picture at the moment, and I can't remember.

haha yes he does have pupils, I just omitted them because I liked the way it looked
Thanks though I'm really proud of that arm!
It was the first thing I drew on the piece.
Thanks so much!
