Steampunk Lego Article

RustyClank pdf

Over at RustyClank blog (a blog devoted to Lego constructions, with a heavy Steampunk quota) they’ve got a download for a .pdf of an article written about Steampunk as a Lego construction genre. While it may not bring much new to regulars at Brass Goggles, it’s a good introduction to those who are new. It includes some advice for colour choices on bricks, and the likely Lego sets to get parts from.

Thanks! Kaja Foglio's journal mentioned the Brass Goggles by MikeST, which then led me to Flickr and on to this blog. Saw a couple of your wallpapers and in a search for 'lego' found my own article listed. What a shock. Thanks for a good honest review. That article appeared in the 3rd issue of BrickJournal (www.brickjournal.com).
Steampunk as a LEGO building theme is really picking up steam (so to speak). Just last month, there was a full size zeppelin[1] brought to NWBrickcon (.org) and there have been some amazing creations posted to brickshelf[2] recently and I see you've found Kevoh's gallery of inspiration art on Classic Space Forums[3]. My own favorite niche is the monowheel[4]

Thanks again,

Dan
