Description

BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL IS TOO DAMN BIG, to see the HI-RES version, CLICK DOWNLOAD.

From the lightning and the tempest,
O Lord, deliver us.
From the scourge of the earthquake,
O Lord, deliver us.
From plague, famine, and war,
O Lord, deliver us.
From the place of ground zero,
O Lord, deliver us.
From the rain of the cobalt,
O Lord, deliver us.
From the rain of the strontium,
O Lord, deliver us.
From the fall of the cesium,
O Lord, deliver us.
From the curse of the Fallout,
O Lord, deliver us.
From the begetting of monsters,
O Lord, deliver us.
From the curse of the Misborn,
O Lord deliver us.

~Walter Miller Jr., A Canticle for Liebowitz

Consider this a first look into the monstrosity that will be Third Nuclear Theatre. Testing out everything from new character designs to a new coloring style. A grand experimental work, of no small pain.

Featured here are the forces of Reichsstand, the de-facto nuclear superpower of Germania:The Charming Prince, the Grey Wolf, the Loyal Huntsman, the Mad Magician, the Steadfast Soldier, the Nameless Knights, and of course the Enchanted Princess. Third Nuclear Theatre aims to be a theatrical fairytale of nuclear proportions, with a thrice-damned spin into nuclear proliferation, literary works, and historical happenstances.

The catchphrase/slogan for this little project will be "Pax per Superioris Bellici Tormenti Potentiae". We'll see how the Fat Man rolls.

And what can I say? This took WAY too long.

I gave up near the end. SCREW shading, said I. The lag? Intolerable. I have about a hundred layers on this monster. XD

ENOUGH. It's time for a little deterrence!

~Your Clockwork Gentleman

Honor through Unity. Unity through Peace. PEACE THROUGH SUPERIOR FIREPOWER.

Hello... I'm in your critique group from DACAD on this challenge.

Okay. This is the original, right? I really wish you had let us comment on the side by side one. I like to have the two together for comparison. Duh... just open them each in their own tab on Firefox! (I guess Iron Man distracted me for a moment there...)

Okay... the comments are definitely going to the other one now.
