I'm thinking about steampunking my laptop because I love the way it looks.
Basically, steampunk is sort of a post-futuristic style of functional art. By post-futuristic, I mean, this is what futuristic was to people in the victorian ages. It's not quite right but it sure looks awesome. It's all different shades of creepy and gorgeous and mesmerizing at the same time. Normal everyday stuff looks pretty rad if you steampunk it. It's super expensive to do, but it's money well spent on aesthetic. Here are some examples. It's going to be image heavy because it's all so great.

This is a functioning computer keyboard.

This is a laptop.

This is a scanner.

This is a necklace.

This is a watch.

I really like steam punk style. I just don't have the skills to create anything in steam punk. I actually did see a few steam punks this weekend.

shilohlascano · 03-18-2009 14:56

That's awesome. I love the laptop! But the watch looks like a service bell hmm

It's really simple, and really easy to cheat. It can get to be pricey, but if you have a vision, you can give something the appearance of having been steampunked while having it only be superficial decoration.

I had no idea what it was, but it looks cool!
I like the keyboard!

I'm in LOVE with that style of keyboard. This dude Datamancer makes a bunch of different types of them and by far, that's the most awesome.

He's brilliant. I would totally marry him.

Dansen · 03-18-2009 15:38

If I could do it I would. I also love steam punk fashion!

If I had the talent I would make those kinds of clothes. ;-;

LadyNoire · 03-18-2009 15:40

Very cool, I love the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen!

Zombesque · 03-18-2009 15:48

Steampunk fashion is beyond incredible. That's actually how I dressed my bimbo.

CassandraKane · 03-18-2009 15:53

I love the look of steampunk, but I'm not much into it.

Vampie · 03-18-2009 15:57

This laptop is cool, but I hope the keyboard isn't as loud as typing machine!!!

jilie · 03-18-2009 16:06

I've never seen this before but it's awesome!!Go do it!!

LazyLinePainterJane · 03-18-2009 16:19

My bf just pointed out that the Will Smith film Wild Wild West was steampunk... shocking. Haha but on a more serious note I do love it, have you seen Steamboy? That's one pretty cool film, laregly helped by it's Mancunian setting of course. tongue

Pale Buttercup · 03-18-2009 17:01

It would be nice to have the resurces to make those alterations. I particulary like the lap top with the legs and the mahogany case

Idontlikebimbos · 03-18-2009 17:48

I want my laptop to be like that! yikes

VioletAngel · 03-18-2009 19:05

I love that laptop content3

I've only recently discovered steam punk (my byfd's very into it), but I really like it. It can turn even a mundane everyday item into a dark work of art. I love the fashion as well and would love to get dressed up and go to some sort of convention or meet up!

I've seen loads of cool things on Brass Goggles and would love to be able to turn my hand and have a go, but I haven't got an artistic bone in my body sniff

I think you should definitely go for it!

The laptops gorgeous but I don't think I'd bother buying it unless I was loaded.

Zeldababy · 03-18-2009 19:21
