This design is the work of Etsy boutique Higgins Creek. They call it a LED gatto steampunk mask. I’m going to call it a steampunk Catwoman mask. Which do you think fits best? [More pictures] There’s a few options you can select when ordering this design. You can pick a primary colour; all black or […]

Steampunk Avengers: A review of Newbury & Hobbes – The Undying
I rather liked the look of the Newbury & Hobbes comic when Geek Native had the chance to share a preview of it last month. I toyed with the phrase ‘Steampunk Avengers’ then but shied away. I won’t any longer. Wait. I don’t mean the superheroes. In this instance, my use of the word Avengers […]
A first look inside: the steampunk Newbury & Hobbes
Doctor Who, Dark Souls and Warhammer 40K writer George Mann has a new project and its steampunk. Titan Comic’s Newbury & Hobbes follows special agents Sir Maurice Newbury and Miss Victoria Hobbes through the dangerous and alternative Victorian England as they tackle criminals. I’d say it’s almost like a steampunk Avengers, but I’m not familiar […]
TradeCraft Bonus: Steampunk fashion for your RPG table
Do you need to add some flavour and interest to your gaming table? Perhaps a little sculpture for your players to notice as they sort out their characters, a quirky dice tower or an NPC portrait?

Genre Police: Getting Steamy
Now, calm down. It’s not as bad as you think. Last time, we took a look at the Cyberpunk genre. Since its inception, it has spawned a massive selection of often odd sub genres (stonepunk, anyone?). While I don’t intend to dissect every ‘-punk genre’ a few of them are worth taking a detour into […]

A steampunk magician in L’Orange’s “Blame the Author”
If the hip hop sounds familiar then that’s because Del the Funky Homosapien, the vocalist, is from the animated band Gorillaz. I’m not hip enough to have known that before today but I certainly have some Gorillaz albums in my collection. I think Harwood Gordon is excellent as the magician. Alexander Thompson wrote and directed […]
Turn your dull teapot into a steampunk R2-D2
This video is from the AWE Artist Series and has Marissa Deal put together a steampunk R2-D2. This particular steampunk droid is also a fully functional kettle. AWE call it a teapot, but it’s the device that makes the water boil, not the pot that brews the tea. Steampunkers pick up on that sort of […]
