Steampunk Room Remodel
Things have been pretty quiet here for a good reason: My wife and I have been remodeling the ‘Great Room’ in our home.

Here are some… Continue reading Steampunk Room Remodel
Steampunk Animated Short
Very cool Steampunk Animated Short: “Mr Hublot” based on Stephane Halleux’s Universe. For some reason this reminds me of our Pitbull/Mastiff mix. Apparently it won an oscar? Go Steampunk go!

Steampunk AT-AT and AT-ST
I think I may have posted these before, but they are really cool. Growing up with Star Wars the AT-AT is still one of my favorite toys ever. “Captain Bayley” has taken an AT-AT and the two legged AT-ST and given them a brilliant steampunk treatment. Take a look at the flickr for more amazing… Continue reading Steampunk AT-AT and AT-ST
