OMG....Dr. Loveless has NOTHING on you.

Now all I need are more minions like this...

You...fiend. Me, I never needed minions.

Well, they ARE nice to have around...

To me the only thing they were good at was getting in the way. I always enjoyed being the lone crusader.

Lucky devil ;)

Why, thank you!

i'm enjoying eyeing your "booty"

A most cuddly armful indeed!

we need MANY more pics of the lovely young lady you have there

I'll poke around in my camera, see what develops.

The hat works well. Now we need to get you the rest of the gear.

Wonderful thing about steampunk: FATTIES AREN'T A PROBLEM. =};-3

Yeah, I'm shopping around for a white rollneck sweater and some other items... ;)

Remember, I got a LOT of hats to work with...

And scarves?

Just the one. But it's a good one, if a tad ratty.

Ooh la la! Tres Bien! :)

Yus!

Nice... Hat !

So... where does one get to dress up like this in Arkansas and not get beat down like Reagan versus Mondale in 1984?

Fayetteville, mostly...

I was more interested in where in Fayetteville... in other words is this a club or event or do you randomly dress cool for Wal Mart. :P

Well, click the link above, son!

Link doesn't work for me, I have to register and that's not happening.

Ah. Well, it's a semi-regular steampunk/goth dance and mixer; they hold 'em once every month or two.

Nize hat, indeed. But you iz not loosing yur hat, so iz obviously a GOOD PLAN.

Right, sweethot? >) Such a schmot guy!

-Sabrina

Ho, yus!

You look like Pop-Eye

Arf, arf, arf!

Actually, I'd left the corn cob pipe in the car; coulda gone for the MacArthur look, I s'pose...

Just awesome, m'man.

Nize... Hat.

And nize attitude.

Heheheheh... Niiiiice...

That's a right proper Duke Von Marmel. Multiple sets of goggles and a gal on the arm. We aught to be jelous, yes?
Do you have a zepplin with a Tali nosecone art?

Jealous, yah.

The nosecone art ain't a bad idea, 'cept you'd need two of them side by side.

Your the one on the right right?

Oh, you.

I know a pretty lady when I see and talk to one

Indeed. But I'm the one in the beard.

Of course you are ^^

The jägermonsters from Girl Genius, right?
That's awesome! A really kickass hat indeed.

Thankee! :)

Oooos a lucky boy then?

Oooers yus, sar!

A great mustache is worth a thousand words...

(twirls same) Yus! ;-{>

Awesome!

(A good friend of mine makes custom corsets, by the way - I have noticed how popular they are with the genre)

(nodnods) Yeppers; many were in evidence that evening. (happysigh)

I've been really fascinated with the whole scene. If you look at my gallery, there's a pic of my Triumph Rocket III - tell me, wouldn't that make an awesome basis for a steampunk-look conversion? Already has the big, blocky (though styled attractively), forged look going for it!

Been wanting to go to one of those cons for a while now.

Heh. That would be a steampunkish bike indeed!

Little brass and hammered copper for trim items (good scrollwork embellishments, too)... used to know of a company that made 'clockwork' wheels, too!

Ah, but for the money.

Heh. Indeed. Or hammered copper covers for the wheels...

I can't seem to find the link anymore, or I'd send it to you - these clockwork wheels were amazing! Gears 'n levers 'n such that all move as the bike rolls down the road! Hideously expensive (on the order of $10k per), but man oh man...

Yeah... hammered copper full-disc covers would work nicely. Maybe machine-turned brass? I'm thinking of borrowing a few cues from that car in League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

Disregard! Their site is down, but I did find a YouTube vid!

Capricorn CycloWorks "Involution" wheels. Dunno if they're still made, and almost certainly won't have any for my big Trumpet, but oh, what a look!

Oh. My.

Haha! Nice lady ya got thar- and bitchen cap as well

Thankee!

Indeed, I love the hat. Though I've never been much for straight pipes myself.

It's Dobbs-Approved™! :7
