I just watched this one a whim while io was eating dinner, and i pooed myself a little bit. It's a New Zealand made Steampunk vampire movie, with dougray scott from MI:2 in.It's not the best film i've ever seen, but steampunk enough to be fun on that level.Awesome shot of airships over a polluted city :)
It's on the BBC iplayer right now, if anyone's interested :)
I remember seeing this before I even knew what steampunk was.
Let's have a thread where we collect the most awesome Steampunk paintings and photos.
Am I the only one that seeing the station it reminds me of the train station in the latest wolfenstein game?
I bring you...a very rough sketch of one of my Skyships...in 5 years maybe I'll get a response!
I quite like the look of this.Is that the pope riding it?

Ooh, I'd love to see a cleaned up version of this...
Thankees for your kind words folks. Nope, its not the Pope, they're Cloudpreists. I'll post a scan of their concept sketches in due course.
Fantastic design - Please post more!Can we have any more details regarding the cloudpriests?
>>616Certainly! However, not for a few days I'm afraid as I'm away from all internet access as of...one hour from now until about 14:00, Sunday (British GMT).However, I promise to upload information and sketches regarding the preists on my return.

Sorry folks, scanners been broken for a while so for now, I'll post this, a quick 5min sketch I did for the great Dr.Steel himself. He liked it so y'know, it can't be that bad. Will post Sky-Preist designs tomorrow, on my honour.
Sooo...I see tomorrow has come and gone...No chance of any Sky-priests, then?
Posted withing the next 30 mins gentlemen. Guaranteed. (Not that my guarantee stands for much right now...ack.)
I'd just like to say though...having drawn these well over a year ago now, my art skills have vastly improved. Any changes, alterations or re-draws, just ask. ^_^ Sorry it took so long...Yeah, I know...its more retro-futurism than entirely steampunk, but...

I have been going around to various steampunk outlets and mentioning that I just had a remarkably good experience with The Gentleman's Emporium. (gentlemansemporium.com)But instead of just talking about how kick-ass this website is... I want to know which ones you favor! Best customer service, best product quality...Has anyone bought from Recollections? (recollections.biz) I've always wondered about their customer service, and if the quality matches the price.

I've always liked the looks of Got Steam.Got-steam.comThey'll make you a set of Airship documentaion, which looks damn awesome to me.
I find the picture and the post number to be very appropriate. :)
Haha!awesome picture and post number win.
It hasn't been mentioned yet for some reason, but the "Firefly" series and the follow up movie "Serenity" are great examples of steampunk.
>>1316What? Last Exile is about as steampunk as it gets. Sure, the Guild is more like an ancient fantasy civilization, but that's a pretty common theme.
>>1319 oop's yeah, your right. I get last exile confused with a similar movie. Also, anymore non-amine movies/tv. I've already seen firefly, serenity, and mutant chronicles. I'm also going to suggest the series Fringe. It's not really steampunk. But if you like mad scientists, weird contraptions, and unreal science, you might like it.

Firefly?Steampunk?...More western inspired sci-fi than anything else.All of the sci fi is based on actual future tech, it's just on the frontiers that the tech level decreases, but isn't that understandable?Awesome yea, but steampunk? i'd have to say no.
>>1321 I find that statement to be a bit murky. first of all Victorian style and western style are incredibly close. as a matter of fact I would go so far to say victorian style is to Europe what western style is to America. On top of that Steam punk falls under the blanket description of science fiction. My point being; taking away cogwheels and adding spaceflight doesn't exclude firefly or Serenity from being considered stempunkish.

>>1322The problem is that the Alliance technology is pretty much standard scifi, it's just the outer worlds that have to build their stuff from the scraps they find.
>>1324And isn't that part of the essence of steampunk, a DIY mentality in the face of ever advancing technological change. Besides Most of the storyline takes place in the outer worlds. Anyway, when all is said and done it's a good series and a damn good movie.

firefly is in NO way steampunk. OP is a retard.
Memories: Cannon Fodder is an amazing short steampunk anime movie. Go watch it, if only for the visuals.
Walter Dillerchin you must have the some "perfect" idea of steampunk in your head... and very few suggestions would ever measure up to your ideals.... and i'm fine with that. But to resort to childish name calling with regards to nothing more than ones opinion is a bit underclass.I believe " Basil Dindergold" is pick'n up what i'm throw'n down, well done.

Great Elder Things!How could i forget!?Wormtooth Nation.Just google it or something.It's a free online web series hosted on Vimeo that's moderately loosly based on Midsummer Night's Dream.excellent, especially as i didn't have to pay for it :)
Well what the fuck is it? Seems to me to be a mishmash of Steampunk and Cyberpunk aesthetics slammed into a wall of the earlier 20th Century. Basically between 1900 and 1940. I like the sound of it, and I've heard that Skycaptain and the World of Tomorow is considered to be very Dieselpunk, but is that it? Others say Mad Max. Any ideas /s/teampunkers?
how come a year ago when i was talking about dieselpunk i was told it was made up and there was no content and now all the discussion, so i propose a /d/ieselpunk board once again.
>>1276 A fair enough proposition these days, now that we're slightly more alive. Look forward to me adding /d/iesel in the near future. God, I might have to redesign the navigation interface...

Dieselpunk is more like Nazi-ufos + Raygun gothic meets WWIIMostly WWII themed things and the fear of atomic war...
>>1308 Hooly wow. Source/More?
>>1310I'm pretty sure it's some Polish guy from CGSociety, look for it there.
Crimson Skies is sometimes considered Dieselpunk, but I think that apart from the planes there isn't much Dieselpunk in it. Cars, buildings and other technology pretty much stay as they were in that era....Imo DP is set in 1920 - 1940 and has the Noir-thingy like>>525 said.Also robots, machines look sleek (few to no exposed gears) gangviolence, possible prohibition, cities are dirty...
Well, by request of this thread, there is now a /d/-Dieselpunk. Enjoy folks.
