The title is from an old Billy Joel song. Someone asked where I get my ideas from and I honestly don’t know. Things pop into my head and I start to think about how I can make them come to fruition. For me this is fun. Once I have an idea for a picture I have to work on it until its done and just the way I want it to be. This was last night Still learning how to make umm err pretty pictures with these 3D programs Ok now back to the Good side, Darth Vader wouldn’t like this one This guy probally works for Darth Vader and is the reason I don’t go into the back shed now Sometimes it all seems like Madness This one features my amazing little 5 year old An Artsy Farsty CD Cover?

The Brass Bug by Damian
This clockwork bug is on a mission. Although a little wayward, it can survive on the chemical energy in the blood of living creatures, so it does not need to be recharged frequently. Made of copper and brass, and the size of an average dog, it is not the strongest mechanical animal of the artificer, but it is suited to its role. When I finish its story, I’ll also add another layer of detail into the bug, and probably a cooler background, LOL!

Here is another one I just recieved I won’t mention the name but they say they are having a Juried Show ” There is an exhibit fee of $190.00 for each artwork accepted, payable only upon acceptance of art into the gallery show.” In the two local art galleries and musuem here they do not charge the artists a cent for showing their work. Juried show or not. I understand a resonable fee, cause they need money to pay the bills and things but for a $190 ? What am I getting??? Whats its like in your part of the world? Do Art Gallerys charge you to show your work?

About This Group
Steampunk is a subgenre of fantasy and speculative fiction which came into prominence in the 1980s and early 1990s. The term denotes works set in an era or world where steam power is still widely used--usually the 19th century, and often set in Victorian era England—but with prominent elements of either science fiction or fantasy, such as fictional technological inventions like those found in the works of H.G. Wells and Jules Verne, or real technological developments like the computer occurring at an earlier date.
Other examples of Steampunk contain alternate history-style presentations of “the path not taken” of such technology as dirigibles or analog computers; these frequently are presented in an idealized light, or a presumption of functionality.
Steampunk is often associated with cyberpunk and shares a similar fanbase and theme of rebellion, but developed as a separate movement (though both have considerable influence on each other). Apart from time period and level of technological development, the main difference between cyberpunk and Steampunk is that Steampunk settings usually tend to be less obviously dystopian than cyberpunk, or lack dystopian elements entirely.
