Steampunk ?! What ?!

Carlos, think Fred Dibnah with a flying traction engine.

Roger.

Will it come with a greasy flat cap?

Its wonderful stuff, but sadly most figures I have seen are smaller than I can manage to paint.
Its very nicely done and seems to consist of Victorian girls with large breasts and big guns or large guns and big breasts. That seems to just about cover it, now just need someone to build larger ones.

Have a look at this - Russian Steampunk by Rostislav ( Rost) - check out a working motor car few pages ahead. That may be a usefull size

I wish I could translate all the background for his concept - its a good laugh

Check out the SmartMax line for 1/35th and 54mm Steampunk figures. I haven't bought any myself, but these are very intriguing and appear to be well done.

Based on the original 19th and early 20th century science fiction authors in conjunction with the advances made in science during the Gilded era of the 19th century which, for the first time, used science to explain the natural world, what had previously had been controlled/explained by religion - some authors who defined this period include Jules Verne ( 20,000 leagues under the sea), H.P. Lovecraft (Cthulu Mythos), Shelley (Frankenstein), C. Darwin ( origin of Species), etc....
