I am afraid none of these images will help at all 
It is what it is

Oh I so love this stuff Fuzz ...  Have I just missed another convention ? 

#2 what a great  piece of gear for cracking walnuts ! 

Love the green haired lady's dress too ...  Hmmm will it fit in the washing machine though ....?

[fuzzyedges]

Yup youve missed whitbys first Steampunk weekend 

[Clicker]

Damnation and other expletives ..!! .Grrrr.   I really wanted to catch that this year ... Hmmm better check out it her forthcoming dates ... I suspect Lincoln may be my best bet ...

It was the first one ever for steampunks at Whitby the gothic weekend is in April 22nd 23rd and 4th and 5th November there is another all steampunk event in July 29th /30th at whitby

I am most impressed by all of this set Fuzzy...but, the one that really stands out is the first, not just because I think it is the best but....

Because my artist mate Chris is his spit image, and he often dreams and jokes of owning Steampunk gear.....and.....here he is.

Cant wait to see his reaction when he sees it.......you have made my day....Thanks!

 

you can see the likeness here...?

lol easy done. i've just joined their facebook group. looks like they have other stuff going on local to me.

Steampunk is world wide but tends to work in small groups so its fairly undergound stuff although its gaining momentum from its birth in the 1980's

yeah steampunk is something i've been aware of for a while now. me and the wife normally go to tattoo and rockabilly events. she rocks the sucidegirl look all multi coloured  hair and tattoos. and i've been shoot tattoo artists at work.

Understanding steampunk.  Is it not just another way of expressing oneself, an alternative form of art?  I can understand that.

Yes and no. The rules are a little more specific than that!
