This piece was inspired by Pixelfink's drawing of a Steampunked Cybusman from the new Doctor Who. This was my take on the idea.

If you're wondering why it has all those little details that otherwise aren't necessary, any hardcore Doctor Who fan can quote from "Doomsday" where the Cybusmen pick at the Daleks for having no sense of elegance. So obviously, they see themselves as somewhat of a work of art, and if the brains who created the Cybusmen were from the Victorian times (which is the whole idea of steampunk), I'm sure they would have added little artistic details that were normal for that time. The other details (such as the rivets, vents, smokestacks, and gears) are functional, and are merely a result of this Cybusman being built from technology available back in the Victorian era (or a place like it). I tried to give it a Jules Verne/Nautilus feel to it, and I changed the EarPods into something that looks more like a Victorian wireless transmitter. So anyway...enjoy, and please give plenty of feedback!! :D

MUCH THANKS goes to :icongeneralvyse: for the awesome backround!!

It's Cyber, not Cybus.

It's Cybus because it was built by Cybus Industries on an alternate Earth. It would only be "cyber" if it was from Mondas. ;)

The Cybermen on Telos were originally from Mondas, too, they were just "living" on a small colony - well, more like a storage center - on Telos. :)

I forgot to mention, the Cybusmen are from the alternate universe and were created by Cybus Industries, hence the name.

I'm feeling mathematical right now.

(f(x+Δx)+f(x))/Δx as Δx -> 0

or simply dy/dx.
