Awesome ‘Steampunk Gold’ Portrait

   Posted by: manny

Here’s a very stunning steampunk portrait, aptly titled, ‘Steampunk Gold’. The gentleman’s name is Liam, also known as the Steampunk Overlord on Deviant Art.

What costume skills! Do check out his Deviant Art page, he’s got lots of great stuff posted and his work is top notch!

STEAMPUNK OVERLORD
it’realy is all about the ideas
my aim is to come up with strong and effective new ideas and new designs (rarly seen) for THE costume world. I have created and designed my own costumes and sometimes use certain talented individuals to bring my ideas to life.and sometimes craft them my self

Badge of Shame Goes Steampunk

   Posted by: manny

Funny man Joe Hansen of Badge of Shame visits the Royal Mary for Her Royal Majesty’s Steampunk Symposium .

He makes a lot of jokes, but this is actually a great look at steampunk. Joe makes fun of himself just as much as the steampunk folk and I think his teasing is harmless.

Definitely worth watching!

Remnant: New Steampunk Series

   Posted by: manny

Get ready for Remnant! This is an upcoming steampunk series from Penny Dreadful Productions, currently filming now. I was given a heads up by PDP’s very own John F. Strangeway, aka Steampunk Boba Fett.

This looks like a cool story about freedom, chaos and order. A great topic for a futuristic steampunk tale, and it makes for a smart commentary about today’s society as well. There’s nothing like a good Sci Fi story that makes you think.

Remnant debuts later this year. I can’t wait to see this!

You can learn more about Remnant by visiting Facebook and their Official Website.

The Turn was black, bloody, chaotic, then quiet. Mankind has spent the last 500 years clinging to a pathetic existence, but from the rubble of time’s decay rises a relentless power. Remnant will stop at nothing to unify the realm and restore order, but order comes at a price some won’t pay. Which side will you choose, Order or Freedom?

Steampunk Playing Cards for Sale

   Posted by: manny

Theory11 sells some rather cool looking steampunk playing cards, definitely worth checking out. The paper they use is “custom bronze-effect paper stock,” and I think it works nicely.

For only $5.95, it’s a good deal!

Opening the box, you will discover 52 pieces of machinery. The depth of the playing cards is fittingly unreal. So unreal, it beckons you to stare at it’s seemingly infinite array of detail. Designed by Alex Beltechi and constructed of 12 million 3D polygons. The Jokers are morphed into jet turbines of steel. The Ace of Spades is a window of opportunity to witness the gears of intricate beauty and complexity.

Lovely Steampunk Fairy Costume

   Posted by: manny

I came across a photo of this lovely steampunk madam and was quite impressed! Great costume, and she’s decked out in amazing steampunk accessories. You can see from the badge she’s wearing that this was taken at Dragon Con.

Stuart of ittybittyevilkitty.com has a nice post about steampunk accessories on his blog, and says of this gal, “I have no idea who this is, but she sure knows how to accessorise steampunk!” Well said, Stuart, I wholeheartedly agree.

Fortunately, this beautiful and mysterious woman chimes in with a comment, identifying herself as Melinda. And she includes a second photo! “Hi! That photo is me, waiting to enter the parade at Dragon Con 2009. Although it’s hard to see the wings, I was dressed as a steampunk fairy.”

Excellent job on your costume, Melinda (and your friends look great, too). Well done!

Steampunk Santa Costume

   Posted by: manny

Did everyone have a good Christmas?

Check out this steampunk-inspired Santa costume. Very nice! Though Santa looks a bit worn out, don’t you think? I imagine he’s quite tired from flying all around the world and climbing chimneys. Great job, Santa. See you next year!

Merry Hothmas from Steampunk Boba Fett

   Posted by: manny

Steampunk Boba Fett wears a costume on a costume to make this very merry Christmas greeting. Nice Santa suit, Mr. Fett!

“Merry Hothmas. Now put Santa in the cargo hold.”

I love the AT-AT walkers in the background, dressed as reindeer and pulling the sleigh. LOL, great job! And Merry Hothmas to you!

Beiber’s Steampunk Video with Beiber Removed

   Posted by: manny

A Justin Beiber video without Justin Beiber? You’ve probably seen the singer’s recent steampunk music video, Santa Claus is Coming to Town.

Well, someone edited the video to remove Beiber, and replaced the song with “Build the Robots” by Dr. Steel. And now it’s a cool robot music video, very nice!

Steampunk Tardis Dress from Doctor Who

   Posted by: manny

For Halloween last fall, lovely lady Goldenmoonrose sewed this amazing steampunk Tardis dress from Doctor Who! Very subtly done, it’s not immediately recognizable until you take a closer look.

What a gorgeous dress, well done, Madam!

My Halloween costume this year was an anthropomorphic steampunk TARDIS, based very loosely on Neil Gaiman’s The Doctor’s Wife. Granted, it was basically an excuse to make this Simplicity pattern and take advantage of my only chance to do some Doctor Who cosplay. Although no one had a clue as to what I was, my costume totally rocked. By far the best thing I’ve ever sewn.
