Steamcycle Study

As some of you may know, my new comic took a lot of inspiration from the "Steamcycle" pic done by Leo Magna ... which he has graciously given me permission to use. In the comic, it will be Fagin's ride of choice, and features pretty prominently in the first issue, so I figured I'd better figure out how the thing works!

Let me just say ... complex design is complex. O.o
