Hooked on Steampunk

564669765 bcb143a0d7Over the last few days I’ve really gotten hooked on the Steampunk art that I’ve seen.

Ranging from Guitars to laptops to even vehicles this strange genre of art has quite a following.

It is best summed up in the following statement I found about it.

The ideas behind the steampunk sci-fi subgenre have been around since Jules Verne and H.G. Wells, but it was given its moniker in the late ’80s as a speculative-fiction genre, alongside cyberpunk, ribofunk and splatterpunk. While the others peer 15 minutes into the future, steampunk envisions a future that has collapsed onto a re-imagined Victorian past. Steam and clockworks replace silicon logic, brass and copper stand in for titanium and plastic, and airships replace spaceships.

So now I am on the lookout for anything old that I could turn into my next project…. Steampunk Style
