The World of Steam


-- The World of Steam is a set of Twilight Zone-like episodes set in a Steampunk universe. From swashbuckling heroes and corseted heroines to mad scientists and demons with identity crises, the World of Steam has it all! --

Shut up and take my money! This Kickstarter looks INCREDIBLE -- I don't think they'll have any trouble reaching their goal. Check out The World of Steam's website for behind the scenes footage and information about this promising project.

This project has been under wraps for several months and I'm delighted to be able to share it with you finally. My friend Kevin, The Airship Ambassador has been working hard to launch The Steampunk Museum. I did the logo design and art direction for the website, and can't wait until the grand vision is implemented. This is sure to be a fantastic resource for all things steampunk.

The beta site is up just in time for a soft launch at SteamCon this coming weekend. Please have a look and be sure to bookmark it so you don't miss anything. You can also stay connected via Twitter (@steampunkmuseum) and on Facebook.

Here is the original concept design for the website so you can see where it's going. Have a look and let us know what you think!

I'm really liking the look of this project by Animator James Lopez. You can definitely see the big mouse influence that is also apparent in Brian Kesinger's work but I think it's wonderful, and am excited to watch this develop.

Here is a work in progress clip and you can keep up to date on the project over on Facebook.
