Description Based on the Lion Passant for the pose (well, not at first!) and then for the mechanics of it I was heavily influenced by car frames and parts! IT'S A LION, GET IN THE...OSNAP etc etc.

Steamwork archans are (c) to Keith Kurson

This pet can be adopted at subeta.net!

You should make one that looks like a human! Like Robecca Steams from Monster High!

RAH HAS MADE THE ARCHAN AWESOME. FOR SRS.

omg the only Archan I ever liked was the Bloodred until you came along. And now I'm liking them all for srs. ;o; PLZ TO DO MOAR, PLZ TO REVAMP, THE LIONS NEED LOOOVEEEE.

This is just so gorgeous omg. How do you do these Steamwork pets? My brain melts just..thinking..about them.
I KIND OF WANT TO RIP ITS HEAD OFF AND ATTACH IT TO MY DOOR AS A GIANT BEAUTIFUL DOOR KNOCKER but that would make me both murderous and creepy, so.. I won't.

LOL well first I figure out a basic pose, then I decide what kind of mechanics I want to use - with the archan I knew I wanted to use stuff that related to cars so I researched car parts, and kind of put some bits over my pose sketch that fit in certain places (the framework, the exhaust tail etc) then I just draw in the rest with random nuts/bolts/hydraulics until it looks neat to me!

Then I do about 300 layers of colour/shading XD ...ok, not 300, but around 30!

ALSO YAY ARCHANS THEY WERE AN UNEXPECTED ADDITION TO MY PET ROTA BUT I'M HAVING GREAT FUN WITH THEM! I'd like to revamp the reborn and angelic to just...change the face a little, but I don't know if I'll be allowed! Maybe next year XD

Ooh that's a good system! It makes sense.

I hope you can touch up Angelic and Reborn omg. I would be so pleased. Especially Angelic since the line quality always seemed fuzzy to me.

I must admit, I had never been a big fan of the archan. As soon as you took over though you've made me want more and more! Great work x3

Heeee, I like hearing people say that n__n I've always liked the idea of the archan, it was just that sometimes the execution wasn't quite how I'd imagined? I've had fun with them though, I think I've been able to tune into the desires of the public!

You know, I hate to admit this in a public place... but I actually hate the Archan. Not so much because of it's art, or even it's actual design? But because I want SOBADLY for it to be -JUST- a lion, and not a lion/whateverelseit'ssupposedtobe. So I hate it because I'm bitter of it not being what I want XD

Like srsly most of the Archan's haven't swayed me long enough for me to set aside my bitter.... however, I will say that this one actually like, I like it. Like, a lot.

Namely the wire (...tube?) mane, AND THE TAIL FFFF. THE EXHAUST AT THE END? IRLYAPPROVE. I also love the ears.

Seriously, if I ever find myself in possession of a means to get a Steamwork pet... the Archan will seriously be considered. That and the Jollin |DDD.... -shot- NOBUTRLY. I like this, it's boss.

xDD LION X BULL TERRIER! (Although I think the bull dog may have been referenced rather than the bull terrier!)

I AM GLAD YOU APPROVE OF THIS THOUGH. TA VERY MUCH

Only one more archan to go now unless I'm allowed to do revamps! I WILL SWAY YOU SOME MORE
