Blacksmith of the Clockwork Clocktower

A hyper-detailed digital painting of a rugged blacksmith inside the hollow of a colossal clock. The chamber is alive with brass gears, copper pipes, and steam vents. The blacksmith stands at a gear-shaped anvil, hammer raised to forge a glowing ingot that casts a warm orange glow on his soot-streaked leather apron, heavy boots, and round steampunk goggles. Behind him, a gigantic clock face looms with ornate Roman numerals and massive hands, through which ambient light filters, blending amber warmth with cool metallic blues. The scene fuses fantasy and steampunk, with cinematic lighting, rich textures, reflective metals, and intricate mechanisms. Perspective from slightly below, foreground tools in sharp focus, while distant gears blur to create a sense of scale and time.
