Datamancer’s Steampunk Laptop Available for Pre-order
Richard “Doc” Nagy is no stranger to those who are into the steampunk scene. Around five years ago, he created a splash by making his first steampunk laptop that ran on Windows XP. He’s also made some Victorian-era keyboards in the ensuing years. But his creations were pretty much not available to the general steampunk-loving public. There’s always bound to be good news at one point or another, and it’s time for steampunk enthusiasts to get their hands on Nagy’s handiwork. In his web site, the self-proclaimed “steampunk contraptor, technical artist, and jackass-of-all-trades” has announced that he is taking pre-orders for steampunk laptops. The image shown above is the original Read more »
Steamboy – Review
If you’re a big fan of the steampunk genre, then you might want to consider taking a look at an anime movie called Steamboy. Taking place in Victorian-era England, Steamboy follows a young boy by the name of Ray Steam as he is thrust into a war over a new power source, the Steam Ball. The Steam Ball contains a highly pressurized liquid that was discovered deep underground in Iceland and was co-invented by Ray’s father, Edward, and grandfather, Lloyd. Unfortunately, relations between Edward and Lloyd turned sour and Ray is torn between the ideologies of his father and grandfather as they both fight over control of the Steam Ball. Read more »

Steampunk Star Wars
You don’t have to be a steampunk fan to adore these incredible reimaginings of your favorite Star Wars characters by artist Bjorn Hurri. And by “your favorite characters,” I of course mean “original trilogy characters.” To call Hurri’s work “fan art” is a gross misconception. These beautifully detailed illustrations belong in a fine art collection. In Hurri’s steampunk world, Boba Fett is a wiry, bug-like character with an elaborate jetpack that leaks fuel. C-3PO is as fussy as ever, but his red necktie indicates he’s a low-level worker of some kind. Han Solo is a pipe-chewing, bowler hat and pinstripe-wearing rogue with mutton chops and fancy specs. Jabba the Hutt Read more »

You’ll Never Want Any Other NERF Gun
Political correctness may warrant the avoidance of toy guns and other similar objects, but sometimes, you need to ignore being PC in order to have fun. In any case, when it comes to guns, I don’t think NERF guns are offensive at all. The story of NERF guns dates back to 1970 when Hasbro released “the world’s first official indoor ball” and the rest, as they say, is history. Toy guns may come and go, but NERF will always have a special place in our hearts. Now what if you can have your very own custom-made NERF gun? What if we up the ante a bit and say that you Read more »
Steampunk Iron Man
Who won the Marvel Costume Contest at New York Comic-Con? Steampunk Iron Man, that’s who. Sadly, I have no information on who the buidler/wearer is, but his/her work is incredible, no? The details are just ridiculous. I mean, just look at all those rivets! And photographer Judy Stephens gave it a tremendous showcase with her terrific use of lighting and composition. What do you think? There are more pictures here, but I’ve posted the best of them for you below. Read more »
