And what’s even better, he provides instructions for How to draw Steampunk Machines on his website. It is a bit on the lengthy side, but detailed and well illustrated and here is some of the art that was produced according to those instructions:
I am an anthropologist and in this capacity a minor scholar of the Cthulhu Mythos and H.P. Lovecraft. I am also quite obviously heavily into Steampunk and Dieselpunk and like travelling.
