The more I try to avoid it, the more it creeps up! Okay, not true. I've NEVER avoided Steampunk...

That said, it does keep cropping up. Like this:http://www.sillof.com/index.htm

This guy makes Steampunk versions of all sorts of action figures.... That's one of the best parts of the genre, in my opinion, is that it has the ability to be completely intertextual!

I wonder if people focus so much on making Steam Punk Star Wars stuff because the bad guys have British accents, or if it has more to do with the general cool factor of the thing?
