One of my loves that I rarely talk about is steampunk. I am particularly fond of the literature the reflects this genre. BUT! I found this person (or she found me) on Twitter (click to follow me).
Look at her blog! It’s great fun and she crafts the most amazing rings! I so want that boulder opal one! She really does understand the genre of steampunk.
While I have not indulged in dressing the part, I can so see myself doing that!
Some examples of steampunk movies would be "Wild Wild West" with Will Smith. The giant spider is a perfect example of this genre of thought. Another is an anime movie only I can’t remember the title. It’s about a young boy who has to take his father’s inventions and run from evil geniuses.
