Awesome Steampunk Photo
I stumbled onto this amazing steampunk photo, taken by Jesse Nobles.
I love the steampunk outfits, and the odd camera angle. Very surreal and artistic, isn’t it?

Here’s a wonderfully made advertisement for thedarkpower’s Mechanical Steam Powered Power Plant and Geist Goggles. Awesome!
From his YouTube description, this was “just for fun, a small advert for some steampunk props I constructed.”
I’m so impressed! Not only are his props amazing, but he nailed the steampunk style in his video. Someone give this guy a job in Hollywood!
I sure love these videos by The League of Steam. This time, the League goes off to investigate paranormal activity, and they leave zombie Zed to clean up the house.
You gotta love a steampunk zombie, and bonus points for the steampunk ghosts. This is awesome, someone needs to give these guys their own TV show!
Check out this gorgeous steampunk costume. He’s on stilts and looks like a giant robot.
This photo was taken at Labyrinth of Jareth, which is an annual two-day masquerade ball in Los Angeles.
Outstanding!

Check out this Star Wars steampunk-style propaganda video. Join the Empire!
I LOVE the steampunk Darth Vader, and the old school feel to this video. It was made by Sudden Stop Films.
Very clever!

Take a look at this gorgeous steampunk costume, created by Pyro the Maniac, aka Courtney Coombs, one of Australia’s best cosplayers. Isn’t this awesome?
Courtney created her own steampunk character named Amelia Harker. So not only did she design an awesome costume, but she came up with a great story to go along with it!
This is my Steampunk costume that I’ve been working on for awhile now. It’s strange that I started sewing bits and pieces of the costume without ever having drawn a design first. But I already had the goggles, the gloves, the top hat, the necklace, fobwatch (not pictured), shirt and the boots.
As I was making the costume I started building up a story for it:
The character is Amelia Harker; she is an explorer of the Australian outback in 1872. She was born to convict parents, but found her wealth during the goldrush. She also has a partner; Flint Dawson (pictures coming soon). A former Union soldier from Indiana who travelled to Australia because of the aformentioned goldrush. But the thing is, they exist in an alternate world where the pleistocene megafauna never went extinct.
Imagine giant marsupials wandering around the vast untamed outback. It sure would make things alot more exciting.

I stumbled onto an interesting steampunk project. A company called Dogtoon Media is working with the steampunk group known as The Wandering Legion of Thomas Tew.
Apparently, this new comedy steampunk webseries will simply be called “The Wandering Legion,” and promises to deliver steampunk adventure and comedy. Sounds good to me!
Here are some behind the scenes photos, courtesy of IndieNate. You can learn more about The Wandering Legion by visiting their (brand new?) website. You can also become a fan on Facebook.
The costumes and gadgets look great. I’m not sure if these guys can top the League of Steam, but either way this looks like a fun steampunk show worth checking out!

Wow, what an absolutely amazing steampunk costume! These photos are taken by Josh Reiss, and the costume was made by Mark Becknauld.
Putting the “punk” back in steampunk, indeed.
Mark Becknauldsays that his outfit for the event wasn’t based on any existing characters. Instead, his intention was “keeping the actual punk portion in steampunk.” Becknauld, who reserves his steampunk outfits for special events like San Diego Comic-Con, Bat’s Day and theme parties, made his armband out of brass, leather and copper. It took about two months to complete.

RobotVsBadger.com put together a collection of photos paying tribute to the gorgeous women of the steampunk movement.
Steampunk continues to pick up speed as more and more people catch on to the super sexy sci-fi movement. This post is dedicated to the lovely ladies of the steampunk movement. Some amazing costumes and cool photography. Enjoy!
I posted a few of my favorites below. Head on over to their site to view them all!
Someone should make a sexy steampunk calendar, don’t you think?

Here’s an incredible costume by Brian Matthews, also known as piratebrine on Youtube.
His costume is that of a steampunk explorer, and the way the wings on his back is very cool. But when he spreads his wings? Wow! I’m ready to believe he can fly away.
So cool, great work!
