Cyberpunk Armorers

| 15. August 2012

My friend Dag of SteamheArt fame has pointed my eye towards a most amazing armory workshop on the ætherweb: Nightmare Armor Studios The word “impressive” does not suffice at all.

Where do I start… A few days ago I was cruising through the ætherweb like I usually do and found another place I thus far had not been to before. I will also not return there. Among other things, Steampunk as a fashion and life style was discussed and there were quite a number of [...]
