Here is a compendium of Steampunk art: http://photobucket.com/images/steampunk/?page=10 Not being an artsy person (ok, I'm aesthetically challenged) I just dont "get" most art genres but Steampunk I do, along with Romantic Realism and whatever genre Maxfield Parrish was in. Thanks for reminding me of Wild Wild West. *I knew this steampunk wasn't new. *WWW was one of my favorites. *Think WWW and that spy thing with Robert Vaughn and Ilya Kuryakin ran back to back in the mid sixties. --Vic David McCallum was Illya and the show was Man from U.N.C.L.E. *Great show. And the original WWW was much better than the remake movie. Also reminds me of a movie called "The Great Race" with Jack Lemon, Peter Falk. *Not sure if that qualifies as "steampunk" though. "Van Helsing" might qualify. *Heck, maybe even Frankenstein and Willie Wonka. --Vic "Dune" |
