It is time to share some of the pictures I have accumulated on my hard drive over months and months… I do not recall where I got most of those from (except for the Blitzkrieg Kittens, my brother sent me that one). The fun tank designs and tracked vehicles are (mostly) real. I guess some [...]

A happy Steamtuesday to you, one and all. Unfortunately, my time for updating this blog is really limited right now and will continue to be so for the forseeable future. So, for now I have to leave you with a really quick, brief and fun update with more or less dieselpunk images I found on [...]

Looking at some of the comics published in and out of Belgium during the Interbellum into the 1950′s you cannot help but notice how dieselpunk (and atompunk) they are. I blogged about this before, regarding Le Secret D’Espadon, and it is also a prominent feature in The Adventures of Tintin. Granted, the above submarine is [...]

Since a lot of things are happening on the other side of the Atlantic and some decent events have taken place in Britain, it is about time something major happens in continental Europe. Thus far, conventions and meet-ups have mostly been local or country-based [...]

Electric or at least hybrid cars are becoming fashionable these days. Rising concerns for the environment, improvement in battery technology and the realization our oil reserves will not last forever have all contributed to the rapid development of electric cars in the last few years. I was therefor quite surprized to learn of an interesting [...]

Over two years ago now, I was musing over what I perceived as a Punk Gap. Back then, I also observed the time period of the gap was dominated by the Space Race. Now I have learned this punk gap has been closed and the Space Race is a major factor in ATOMPUNK. Atompunk is [...]

We all know about the Apollo Program which brought a number of US astronauts to the moon. At the same time, the USSR also had a manned space program going (for my younger readers: The USSR was a state that existed from 1922 to 1991 and comprised areas of what is now Russia, Ukrania, Belarus, [...]

So here it is, issue 20 of the Gatehouse Gazette. This one is dedicated to the 1930s, the decade which brought forth the best designs in art, technology, fashion and architecture. Well, at least as far as my personal tastes are concerned. Art Deco and 1930s fashion are two aspects of the 30s I find [...]
