Steampunk inspiration and resources

Weekend at the Asylum: The Great Exhibition

Besides the amazing outfits and incredible sessions, there was also an exhibition of Steampunk arts and crafts during the convention. There were some fun gadgets, punked paintings and imaginative accessories on display all weekend in the Tennyson Suite of the Bailgate Assembly Rooms. Check out the gallery below, and if you want to know about any particular work or artist, feel free to leave me a comment. I took pictures of almost all of the labels for the gizmos and I can pass them on if you want more info.

Because who DOESN’T need a monkey butler?

    I love the idea of having an emergency tea kit. Might have to take inspiration from this and make my own, though I’m not sure I could manage something so professional looking.

      I know! Both the tea kit and the crime scene kit were really well done and polished looking.
