Surely you knew it was coming!! :XD:

For this one, I tried to make the armor look a lot like the design he built in the cave (which was pretty steampunk-ish), while adding elements from the final, more distinctive suit.

I created sort of a backstory for the Victorian Tony Stark - still working on it, though. Basically...

Injured during an act of vandalism on a Catholic church while attending Mass, (which was fairly common in Victorian America, I'm sorry to say...) genius assistant to Nikola Tesla and Italian immigrant Antonio Starkzi is given a second lease on life when they are able to create an Electrostatic Bio-Ether Self-Perpetuating Mechanism, a life support unit attached to Antonio's chest. When they discover that the unit is able to provide power to larger objects (with the assistance of auxilliary steam-driven dynamos), Antonio creates a suit of armor and fights against religious intolerance wherever it is found.

Thoughts, questions, or suggestions are welcomed!!

Pretty neat idea man. Diggin' it.

Tesla-tech FTW.

The armor's well-decorated, too.

Every time you say "Kawaii", a hundred kittens die in a fire. Please, think of the kittens.

"Pfft. If furry were a race there probably would have already been a genocide to go with it!" -~usernamedesired

As brilliantly steam-punk as it is, this would not look out of place in the 41st Millenium! :D Excellent detail! Excellent!

One of these days, I will know what the kumquats are hiding from me... and I will claim their secret as my own....
I can imagine it already:

His greatest enemy, a Protestant minister named Justinian (nicknamed "The Hammer" for his religious fervor and hatred of Catholics), declares Iron Man an enemy of Christianity (since at the time, both Catholicism and Protestantism believed themselves to be the only true denomination), and writes a letter to a Chinese warlord, a mandarin in the empire who is believed to sympathize with Christianity, asking him for his aid.

I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, who, in His infinite love, died for my sins and the sins of the world, and that He is the ONLY way to heaven. If you do too, and aren’t scared to admit it, copy and paste this into your signature.
Great work as ever, man :D
very cool
