Granted, the topic of this post pushes against the boundaries of what is healthy quite violently, but I guess more than a few of us have thought about really appropriate jobs and hobbies for Steampunks (and obviously Dieselpunks). It is all a question about how far you want to carry your lifestyle. The trouble is, [...]

Since my current place of residence, Augsburg, is situated in the region of Swabia, German: Schwaben, so it is only good and proper I do a little article on LZ 10 Schwaben, the first Zeppelin in commercial use: LZ 10 Schwaben was not only the first commercially used Zeppelin, it was also the first passenger [...]

This one is Sucker Punch and IMDB has the following very short statement concerning the plot: A young girl is institutionalized by her wicked stepfather. Retreating to an alternative reality as a coping strategy, she envisions a plan which will help her [...]

While skimming across the waves of the Æthernet in my relentless search for blogging-material I came across yet another artist’s impression of the Landkreuzer Ratte: Excellent work, Cudos to Von Brrr. Von Brrr also has a number of other impressions of experimental vehicles in his gallery, so take a look. And another thing which makes me [...]

I should have done this article a long time ago. I had the idea a couple of times but for some reason I never got round doing it, i.e. putting it on my Steampunk Blog. So here we go, a collection of music and (provisional, in some cases) music videos, all in some connection to [...]

Steampunk Holiday July 8th, 1838, Ferdinand Adolf Heinrich August Graf von Zeppelin is born in Konstanz, Grand Duchy of Baden. And as we all know, if it was not for him, one of the most iconic elements of Steampunk technology would not exist. So today, we raise our glasses to Count Zeppelin! People who looked [...]

Via my friend Nick’s blog I found the following magnificient artwork by Remton. Please pay him a visit his page on Deviant Art. It is titled “Luftflotte” and this says it all: Just notice the details, the woman (possibly a pilot) is wearing a headband with an Iron Cross and the Zeppelin (very futuristic, I [...]

A while ago, I ranted about Germans being completely devoid of patriotic feelings. Well, it seems we are changing. Right now the FIFA Word Cup is on (I guess you noticed…) and Germany is once again all coloured black, red and gold, people are going around with painted faces, flags ties around their shoulders etc. [...]

In this post I posted an image of the classic Maybach Zeppelin. It seems there is a new. more moderen, less classic version out: I guess this Zeppelin is beyond what most of us can afford. It still looks slightly Dieselpunk, despite its modernity. And no, I am not dreaming of owning this Maybach Zeppelin. [...]
