Steampunk Van and Adham

Adding on to Bahamut's crew of airship pirates with two more; the cabin boys Van and Adham.

A few years ago, I did an art trade with ~pretiossissime where the theme was 'lovechild', the idea being that we chose a character of ours and then proceeded to design a new character with aspects of the chosen characters. The end result was my design for Van (left) and her design for Adham (right).
What was cool was that our ideas were pretty close to each other, so it helped solidify the brothers.

After a while, we played around with the idea of the two being part of Bahamut's airship crew, and we just ran with the idea from there.

I actually had the lineart for this done back in 2009, so I finally decided to sit down and finish it off.
The colors were pretty good, though the shading really could have been better, not sure why it didn't work for me here.
