I can see a niche market for steam punk leather vests here.

Gawdzilla, the vests, vambraces (cowboy cuffs), hats, and wrist bands are the main items sold at most of the conventions I have attended.

Cool. I'll have to see what the community is like in St. Louis.

Thanks, all!

BTW, was "Golden Compass" a steam punk movie?

This is my contribution to the steampunk style, my laptop case. It's a lot of fun and have a few things in the works in that style with my leather.

I do not know much about it but there is some great creative art that has come from it.

I think the game Bio shock had a steam punk influance. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BioShock

Love the music, thanks:specool:

I've toyed with the idea but fortunately/unfortunately I've been too busy with motorcycle leathers to give it a spin. If you're looking for some music to inspire Steampunk images check out The Cog is Dead. One of my favorites in the genre.

I really like steampunk because I am a big sci fi fan. I have a section in my Etsy shop devoted to steampunk. I made my very first steampunk hat from a pattern by Tom Banwell. Of course, he is the premier steampunk hat maker IMHO. Here are a few of the things that I have made...
