Steampunk Assault Mech

The Berlin Bull, in all its martial glory! I did this in the beginning as a sketch, and then it kind of went off the rails from there. I really should learn to control myself in that respect!

I also did this pic as a teaser concept for ~LaChasseresse, so a big shout out to her!

Also, make sure to check out the second version of this piece, here!

Features:

-Gyroscopic stability control, located in the stomach below the pilot apparatus.
-Powered by steam pressure-batteries located in the abdomen, secondary power comes from a boiler on the back of the machine, electrics are powered by a diesel-powered dynamo in the head.
-Fully hydraulic movement with steam pressure-releases located at the key joints, like the knees and elbows.
-Pilot can acquire targets by either looking out of his window in the chest, or by using the zoom-capable lenses in the head.
-Note the sketch of the man in the bottom right corner for scale purposes (sorry, it's a bit faint.) This man is six feet tall.
-Fully articulated armour, monstrously heavy and inflexible, but impenetrable to almost all modern exploding shells and aerial bombs. The only thing that poses a sufficient threat to it is an armour-piercing round fired from a battlehip main gun.
-The knife arm is built out of treated, non-morphing steel, and the blade itself has a titanium core, with a zinc-alloyed cutting edge to prevent rust. In full swing, the blade can slice through the hull of a typical dreadnought battleship with relative ease.

PLEASE NOTE: I'll sumbit a full narrative history of the assault suit to my journal (about damn time I update it) so stay tuned!
