ideias steampunk (o que faltava inventar ?)







"I incorporate my love of macabre, and I'm also a DIY punk kid and the vocalist in a crust/hardcore band, so steampunk to me is a lot more to do with a dystopian society on the edge of social revolution, black clad steampunks armed with spanners and molotov cocktails, manning decommissioned steam-powered war mechs and waging war against the tyrannical empire. I also create cryptozoological specimens and I feel that this all fits quite nicely together."




Steam punk is both a genre of science fiction, and a life style. future technology applied to victorian principles. Steam powered automatons, zeppelin cities, mad scientists, clock work computers. It is a retro future setting, where brass and glass, steam and leather replace plastic and polymers. It is also an appreciation of aesthetic as well as functional beauty. as a punk, it is the time of political turmoil,of the lower classes manning steam mechs and fighting against the tyrannical laws of the land. ..i digress. Cryptozoology is "the study of evidence tending to substantiate the existence of, or the search for, creatures whose reported existence is unproved, as the Abominable Snowman or the Loch Ness monster.

All of the foetus' and creatures are made using various artistic clays, resins and latex. If i do ever use animal parts, the bones or fragments are from naturally deceased animals, all leather is either fake or recycled from secondhand clothing.
