Mr Chen, you wrote to point out that someone had made things far better than yours – well, I found quite a lot I liked on your site too!  Above, for example, is a very nicely made (and accessorised) jetpack inspired by both Rocketeer and Steamboy.  I also really adore your Vacuous Squids and also the wonderful ideas that your SF Bicycle Astrolabe generate in my mind.  I mean, an artifact from a bicycle-centric world that shows the cycle routes (and nothing else) of the city, as well as a very cycle specific plea around the edge, hoping to avoid the terrors of cycling – potholes, cars and glass.   Coupled with valve-headed metal squid monsters (that double as candleholders) and I’m terribly impressed!

That, and anyone who posts an image that looks like Totoro is trying to hatch his head is a man with quite a lot of character.  *chuckles*  Thankyou, Mr Chen – I’ll post the link you actually meant to send at some point, I promise!
