I've been chasing Professor Otto the Confused to purchase some of his Victorian Bank notes, but he hasn't been around for a while nor has he answered emails or posts on this or a diesel punk forum he frequents.

Has anyone been in touch with him?

Thanks, not being a facebookish person I'd never have thought of it.  I'll take a look.

I seem to remember an artist who did fake banknotes...the web site was called something like 'Films of Antarctica' or something. Is that the guy?

He has an email address registered with the forum, I'm not sure if it's public or not so have you checked?

I took the liberty of looking up his profile. Assuming it's the same Otto the Confused, it seems he was only active here about three weeks (mid February to early March), and didn't spend very much of that time on the forum (total time online 47 minutes; he's still ranked as Swab). He doesn't have any posts listed; if he offered his banknotes in Trading, it would have been pruned after ninety days.

He does have his email listed publicly, so that's probably the best bet for contacting him. Good luck.

I've tried his email addresses, forums (SP & DP), web site and even Facebook, all to no avail.  I suspect he's on a safari in a dark deep jungle or perhaps a temporal dungeon somewhere (his banknotes are forgeries after-all). Maybe I'll get a reply after someone rescues him!

These the bank notes shown on the FB Brittish Steampunk Community page? If so, I know him if you can't get hold of him.

I miss being in a society where people have just one name, not a possible 13 to pick from Grin

Thanks everyone, I'd like to buy some Victorian era bank notes, Otto must be at the mercy of headhunting cannibals or locked up in a maximum security institution somewhere ..... so .... If you would be kind enough to point me to your friends who also produce similar notes I'd appreciate it very much.

Thanks again.

Thank you, I've emailed him with a request.  I hope he isn't interned in the "Tower" with Otto!

My Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,

   To clear up any confusion that you might have, I am still producing Reproduction Victorian/Edwardian Banknotes for your fine Steampunk/Neo-Victorian outfits and Imagination needs. I do ship anywhere in the known world. I have had to rebuild all of my templates, do to a computer malfunction(the user). I do apologize for not being more active. Some would call me a "Reclusive Entity", I am not sure if that is correct or not. I currently offer banknotes from the UK, United States, Germany, France, Russia, Italy, Iceland, India, Japan, Spain, and Turkey. More in the future as time permits. I shall be fully operational by the end of November 2012. Please, if you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me via this post or at seeingmonsters32@msn.com Also please see me on Facebook with many examples of my work.

 At your service,

Professor Otto the Confused

I contacted you once about an "Airship Mechanic" licence, but lost track of you...  If you are still interested in making these, I'd still like one.  Let us know, or I'll contact you off-forum with my ideas.
