The ultimate guide to make a steampunk art! Find out all the materials, techniques and tips you need to create your next steampunk project
It has been said before and it can be said again and again but inspiration for art can come from the most unusual places. But no matter where the inspiration for art comes from, it can really touch you. Take steampunk art for instance; it combines elements from the past going back to the industrial revolution and the present to make art that is unique and really eye catching. It is like looking at eye catching abstract painting ideas where we wonder what made the artist painting what he or she did even as we admire the end result.

Science Steampunk Lamp - See. Want. Must Have!
This steampunk lamp, created from antiquarian things, found by me in different places and old appliances. By making a purchase you agree that the goods will be manufactured within approximately 21-30 working days from the date of purchase. You also need to understand that it will be slightly different from what you see in the photo since this is a handmade. Under this glass dome are vintage radio tubes illuminated by LEDs and other illuminated curious artifacts. All lights are controlled by a switch installed on the power cable to the lamp. Outside the glass dome on the lamp base, a switch / dimmer is mounted to adjust the light of a tubular vintage bulb. The voltmeter starts working when you turn on the LED lights, and also it has its own switch. When you turn on the LEDs, they change color slowly. All you see are real materials (brass, copper, glass) that have been carefully cleaned and polished. This lamp and all my other lamps are designed and created in my workshop in Greece in Athens, using certified electrical parts such as Legrand, MeanWell, Nichia, and others.

Castlefest is a festival to honour the sun, which at the Celts was worshipped as the god Lugh. This god brought mankind a lot of good things; he taught us how to grow grain and he warms the earth, so that the grain can grow and we can eat. The old Celtic harvest feast Lughnasadh is held in honour of this god. To this day heathens and Celtics alike celebrate this feast yearly around the first of August, also on Castlefest! Castlefest is een festival ter ere van de zon, die bij de Kelten werd vereerd als de god Lugh. Deze god bracht de mensen veel goede dingen. Zo leerde hij ons om graan te verbouwen en hij verwarmt de aarde, zodat het graan kan rijpen en wij te eten hebben. Het oude Keltische oogstfeest Lughnasadh is aan deze god gewijd. Tot op de dag van vandaag vieren heidenen en kelten dit feest ieder jaar rond begin Augustus, ook op Castlefest!

Steam Ingenious is holding a contest: The idea is to use Simplicity Pattern 2172 in a unique way. I've ordered the pattern (why is post from the USA so expensive?!). I was thinking of making a sleeveless coat, something like this: For the skirt, I was thinking of making a high-low hem skirt with a bunch of ruffles, something like these designs: I'm not sure how I'm going to achieve all the cascading ruffles, but I have figured out the base skirt. You will need: a long skirt bias tape thread sewing machine pins 1. The base skirt should be quite long. Mine is ankle length. 2. Fold the skirt in half and sketch a curve from the centre of the skirt to the side seam. Make sure that you don't make the skirt too high in front: use an existing skirt as a guide if you need to. Pin along the line that you marked. 3. Carefully cut the skirt, a few centimetres below the line you drew, to allow for mistakes. If your skirt has lining, cut the lining separately from the main skirt material. Cutting too many layers of fabric can result in jagged cuts. 4. If you need to take the skirt in, do it now. To avoid bulk, take in the lining layer and the outer layer separately. I unpicked the waistband, took in the skirt, then resewed the waistband. It is tedious, but it reduces bulk. 5. Finish the seams. You can use bias tape, or sew a zigzag stitch along the edge. 6. Here are my finished edges. This will stop any fraying. I used bias tape on the lining, and a zigzag stitch on the main material. Part 2: Making the ruffles.

If you've noticed my lack of craft posts the past few months, it's because all my crafting energy has been going into my next cosplay - which is fun, but also saps my creative mojo, so to speak. I'm looking forward to finishing just so I can get back to smaller, immediate-gratification projects! Sadly I'm nowhere near the finish line yet, but I think the most important part - my mask - is finally finished enough to show off. As most of you guessed from my sneak peek ages ago, I'm working on a steampunk White Rabbit from Disney's Alice in Wonderland. Now, this is my first-ever foray into leather working, so naturally John and I jumped in head first by starting with a fairly complicated mask. Heh. I turned to Youtube for tutorials - and highly recommend this one from Merimask - but we still were figuring out a lot of things as we went along, since every tutorial offers slightly different advice. I started by modeling my mask after Andrea/Merimask's "Gentleman Bunnies" design: You can actually buy one of these (or a similar style without the monocle) at Andrea's Etsy shop for $200, but since this is to be the focal point of my entire costume, I was determined to make it myself. I'm just stubborn like that. And cheap. But mostly stubborn. Aaaaand here's my mask (so far): I may still adjust one or two things, but over all I'm pretty pleased for our first try! John did the hardest part, which was drawing and adjusting the paper template, stopping to crinkle it over my face every few minutes to check the fit. When he was satisfied, he cut it out of vegetable-tanned, 8 oz leather and handed it over to me to sketch on. I drew in my design details, and then he did the carving: John is really enjoying this new hobby, so I practically had to pry the mask out of his hands to do my own work on it. :) Next we soaked the mask in water and formed it on my face. This was tricky, since the muzzle really needed to stand out, but I kept working at it with my fingers, and was eventually satisfied with the shape. (Interesting note: saturated leather is oddly clay-like, and very malleable.) We also shaped the ears a bit. We propped up the formed mask on parchment paper, and then baked it at about 200 degrees until it dried: You know it's dry when the mask color lightens up again. (It gets quite dark when you soak it.) Takes maybe 20 minutes, tops. We used 7 to 8 pound leather for the mask, although I've since learned that we probably could have used something a bit thinner. This thickness is rock hard when dry, and feels more like wood than leather on my face. Good thing it's molded to fit so well! Here's the formed mask next to my original sketch. As you can see, we got it pretty close. As much as I like the color of undyed leather, I couldn't really be the White Rabbit without, well, some white. So next came priming and painting: I used a water-based primer, and then plain acrylic craft paint for the white. The gold sections were painted with Liquid Leaf - which is NOT water-based, but gives a nice shine. As soon as I finished the gold I realized the contrast was just too stark, so next I aged the entire mask with a lovely yellowish-brown water-based glaze. (The advantages of being married to a former faux-finisher: custom glazes on demand!) I went a little overboard with the aging, though, so even though I loved the look, I had to go back and white-wash the white sections again to brighten it up. After all, I don't want to be the Cream Rabbit. (More on my giant pocket watch in a minute.) The monocle was WAY harder than the mask, and took three times as long to make. I spent hours on the paper template, shaving off millimeter by millimeter to get it to fit the mask contours exactly. I first made a vinyl version, but then started over with a thicker leather for a more authentic look. I also started out with a vintage flashlight lens, but then abandoned THAT for the fun metal edging you see here: I cut my own lens out of plexiglass, and added a scrim by stretching a scrap of thin black pantyhose over the back. Finally I formed & stitched the cup, added decorations, and riveted the whole shebang onto the mask. The finishing touch was a thick gold chain attached to the side. That process was stretched over more weeks than I'd care to admit. I've come to realize I am the world's slowest crafter, just because I figure things out as I go, instead of starting with a clear-cut design and plan of attack. I like the process, but it does get frustrating. Now check out this loveliness: Sha-POW! This is what you get when you let weeds overtake your backyard: a lovely, springy ground cover in brilliant green. Who needs grass? I like this stuff! Oh, and I just realized the scale of this picture makes my mask look tiny, but I can assure you that's just a giant pocket watch. :) It's actually a vintage wall clock, but I removed the electrical guts and replaced them with a lightweight battery operated clock mechanism, so it even works! I also jazzed up the face with metallic gear cutouts and gems. (Still not 100% happy with it, but it's on the back burner for now.) The thing still weighs a ton due to its heavy metal case, but there's no way I could make something like this entirely from scratch. Welp, that's all for now! I have lots more to show you, but nothing finished, so I'll save all that for next time. 'Til then, I'd love your suggestions on what I can do with my hair/head. Hats are out, so I'm debating either a white wig (which might look too stark) or some kind of head wrap with white & gold cyberlox on the side, kinda like so: via What do you guys think? Any other options come to mind? My hair is too dark and long to leave showing as-is!
Steampunk fun. Perfect for gifts for any occasion or just for your own collectable decoration :) It is a handmade item, so each one is unique and may be just slightly different. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to send me a message.
