Steampunk Pumpkins

Postby zombombie » Tue Jun 19, 2012 10:48 am

Steampunk is a genre that I've known about for a while now, but not something I've ever really looked into in great detail. I've always thought it looked cool though so this year I've decided to go steampunk for my Halloween costume :)

While looking for inspiration I found these guys:

I'm almost tempted to construct one of these for my party this year....

Very awesome, I'm a fan of the steampunk style, so I can't wait to see what sort of costume or decor you might come up with.

I was actually doing some research on steampunk/victorian styles, and collected some images on Pinterest. You might get more ideas from these, EZ:

Thanks ZP! I'll have a look :)

That steampunk Iron Man is fantastic! Love the steampunk plague doctor too :-)

So does this mean there maybe a Steampunk pattern this year? That would be cool to carve and paint as well.
