NSFW:















Not Sure if I posted these pics correcty?? lol

I hope so!

OH Kelliesean! I so love your piece! The images didn't show well, You kinda need to imbed them... Um. In the chat box, there is an option to click a picture, put the hyperlink of the picture and hit okay. It puts tags around it *img] * = [

The images worked for me. Just had to click on them. Perhaps it was intentional as the first image or two are a bit NSFW. Any how I love how it turned out! Going to be so hard to pick a favorite!

Everyone's turned out so nice!!

love the design Kelliesean!

With the guidance from you guys and help from a more tech savy friend here i finally figured out how to post these images.. Now i hope i remember how to lol..

I also hope these images dont offend anyone!!

I LOVE thie forum!! The work is AMAZING! So happy to be a part of this.. every work is so inspirationl!

Always wanted a reason to try this so here is my first go at "steam punk" had to google to see what exactly it entailed and was inspired to paint this :

( I used # 2 #4 round brush, sponge, mehron paradise gold, bronze and silver dfx black and wolfe white and mehron paradise red I also used the bam stencil 1035 the swirly floral one.)

finished product:

Keep in mind I'm just a newbie! I was playing around and decided: why not?

All feedback is greatly appreciated!

Materials used:
3/4 inch flat brush, no 4 round brush, sponge, superstar gold, bronze and metallic nut brown, PartyXplosion white, 2 sponges, BAM paisley stencil.

Step 1: using a 3/4 inch flat brush and a sponge, draw and fill in a mask shape with gold.

Step 2: add the paisley pattern to the sides using a sponge loaded with metallic nut brown and the BAM stencil. My positioning was way off

Step 3: double load your no 4 brush with white and bronze to make some flowers. Next outline the mask using the same brush with bronze. Add some swirls with bronze and gold. Paint your lips if you like.



The endresult:

Nice try Shiran !!! love the paisley stencil BTW...

Oops...sorry, I accidentally posted this in the wrong place but here is my steampunk hand! I did it all with Kryolan metallic paints, and some Wolfe black and white, using two brushes (Wolfe #1 and #4).

So cool Gretchen! Really incredible work..

Thanks!! I was so excited that I happened to have bronze nail polish too! ;-)

I noticed the polish as well! Great touch

aaah..good job, Gretchen! and I was thinking of recreating my steampunkhand too!..

Well I don't have any silver to do gears, so here's a steam/cyber punk type face paint thingy. This is my first forum post so I hope the images work!!

Spelonberry:
It looks really cool! No worries w/o silver. The mouth/nose part confuses me a bit, but I really enjoy the forehead and jaw line!

Thanks Rayebs! Haha, everything confused me except the tube wire thingy.

step1: make circles around the eyes in black and shade to the middle
step2: add brown mask and with a stipple sponge sponge gold, copper and oxidized bronze over the brown
step3: add ornaments and gearwheels in white, gold, silver, bronze, copper and blue
step4: add white highlights
step5: add black outlines and detail
step6: add shadows

I posted some here long ago, they are still here (Facebook) for inspiration (6 pictures). Not that you need it, the submissions are great =)

those are all very creative , Lone!

this is the steampunkhand i did for a theme of the month competition last year, Gretchen...

Oh cool!!! Love it!

Thanks Michelle =)

I wish I'd taken some step by steps for the one I did last Oct...

I'll be painting a few models on May 18th this year for an actual 'Steampunk' event at a local Heritage Home. I'm hoping to have both a guy and a gal painted this time
