I was commissioned by Indie RPG Map maker and writer Balatro to create a new shopkeeper for his upcoming title "Idas Guide to Worlds Beyond Our Own" This lovely face is Professor Guzmen
The idea was a brain in a mechanized jar, with plenty of dieselpunk influences like Wolfenstein
for the body I was very much inspired by the shape of a brain and the "Jar" itself borrows a lot from German Bombers like the Heinkles and Dorniers
