Some recent Steampunk work

[Briar Spirit]

I am sooooooooooooooooo BORED not having anything to do with pipes at the present, so effing bored in fact I have gone back to digital artwork for fear of losing my mind with the deafening roar of silence in my creative existence.

These are my first efforts at making Steampunk'ish graphics using Photoshop CS5

Pretty wild stuff

Very cool, I especially like the bike.

Thank you both for the compliments, very kind of you. :sunny:

Okay, so it's not perfect but it's my first shot at making a Steampunk'ish Dagger, weird looking huh, I enjoyed making it though, I may make another at a later date but onto the next thing. :smile:

That last one looks like something PB might have played with as a kid.

Can someone explain Steampunk to me? I know that it's got a Victorian-meets-post-apacolyptic thing going on, but I have NO clue where it came from. What's the draw?

But then, sub-culture/counter-culture/alt-culture has always alluded me (I'm that perfectly boring combination of simple traditional and holier-than-thou suburbanite).

Good luck with that...

Theoretically it is a sub class of sci-fi where steam runs crap instead of fusion/plasma/rare outer space crystals etc. In reality it's a sub class of fantasy... I say that because it's almost always set in alt history. Regardless it never caught on much with me other than I like freaky women and steam punk girls are some of the freakiest. Lol
