Morgan Dreadlocke Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 I think Jules Verne started the whole steampunk thing. Disney just glamorized it back in '54. Vulcania Submarine PIRATES! Because ye can't do epic shyte wi' normal people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_MacNamara Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 'aving been interested in this genre for a while now, I thought I'd post one of my pieces: It's the "Audiophonic Aetherometer", which magically plays music obtained from the aethernet. Basically, it's a self-contained MP3 "boombox". Captain of the Iron Lotus It is the angle that holds the rope, not the size of the hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Hand Posted July 15, 2008 Author Share Posted July 15, 2008 Well, I'm getting closer to finishing all the stuff I need for a steamy Burning Man...... still have to sew the top to the tent, then the mosquito netting, and some work on the trike....... In the happy panic mode kinda like wot I do before Pyrates in Paradise each year..... so much stuff to finish, but it all gets done in time...... Right now, I have a bunch almost completed stuff.... So I'll post pictures when I test camp with it to make sure it all works....... And if I still have time.... then I can make an Airship Pyrate outfit.........

Patrick Hand Posted August 1, 2008 Author Share Posted August 1, 2008 AAAAAACK !!!!!!! Only 4 more weekends or 23 more days until Burning Man...... I still have to finish the cot, and the trike, and an Airship Pyrate jacket and vest........ There is the Independence Hall flea Market this weekend (it's an annual event where I buy all the wool blankets they have) and I want to see if I can find some more stuff for my camp. The tent is finished, I'll post photos of it when I finish the cot.... The good news is that I know what my address will be...... 5:30 Corvet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ransom Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Take care, Patrick, and have a great time! And yes, be sure to take lots of pictures. Burning Man looks like quite the adventure. But, I still hope you can make it to Ojai. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

blackjohn Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I was always a big fan of the boardgame, and whenever I was in a ToysRUs I would always play the Xbox demo game. It's a shame they never did a PS2 version. But that's the competition so... Wow... ten years ago... I still know of a game store that has some of the original lead miniatures... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crimson_Skies My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.

Airship Pirates... Yup, that's where I started. You know, I'd heard the name Abney Park, but had never actually heard any of their music. I clicked in to about five of those videos, and by the time I was done, I was hooked. Yeah, the recordings, for the most part, were pretty raw, and done by fans in the audience, but I loved the music, and figure an album done in a studio would sound a lot better. I'm going to check it out when next I'm at the store, and you can put on those head phones and scan the CD bar code to get a quick sampling of the tunes. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

Patrick Hand Posted October 18, 2008 Author Share Posted October 18, 2008 ...Could Patrick have started a new trend for us Pirates here? Hey... airship pyrates....cool....now we gotta figure out wot that looks like..... you know, I'd heard the name Abney Park, but had never actually heard any of their music. I/quote]Funny thing is... they are a really cool band.... and they enjoy their audience,,,, drat... Robert (the lead dude) well and alla them go out and talk to everyone before the show... they feel like one of your friends..... dang cool....you feel like you are a part of the band, and it is your friends playing.....I've never felt that before for any band...... but Abney Park does that.... cool...... I wanted to post a link to Abney Parks Airshp Pyrates.... but by now everyone has seen that haven't they? Hey..... wot do Airship Pyrates look like.... wot I did at Burning Man kinda sucked...... Drat, it just didn't work.....

LadyBarbossa Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 LOL.... hilarious, QM. It's Bumblebee. After all, he's the one stuck with the cheesy kid or teen in almost every series out there with him in it. :) Aye, Megatron is my fav. Hello?!?! CANNON! I do so love cannons. All in all, it's a neat version, yet some Transfans are kinda iffy about it. Ooo! Ooo! Matt! Another TF fan, mate? Rock on!!! Well, I suppose a techno cowboy version with a futuristic style would be BraveStarr from the 80's. Might by steampunkish, in a couple of ways I suppose. Yes. Yes I think Patrick DID toss lighter fluid onto an ember. Hmm, wonder what you get with 18th c steampunk style/ pirate steampunk. Instead of victorian/edwardian era, more of the 17th or 18th c influence? Hmmm... ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed."

blackjohn Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Blackjohn, make us a steampunk event.
