Incorporating a futuristic Victorian perspective on fashion, culture, and technology, steampunk is a sub-genre of science fiction that came to popularity in the eighties. Inspired and influenced by 19th century science fiction, steampunk is inexorably intertwined with a distinctive style that sets it apart and widely inspires cosplayers of all walks of life. Here, we're gathered together a gallery some of the best examples of steampunk cosplay around the web.

Castlefest is a festival to honour the sun, which at the Celts was worshipped as the god Lugh. This god brought mankind a lot of good things; he taught us how to grow grain and he warms the earth, so that the grain can grow and we can eat. The old Celtic harvest feast Lughnasadh is held in honour of this god. To this day heathens and Celtics alike celebrate this feast yearly around the first of August, also on Castlefest!

ReplyDeleteI could choose to fit the canvas print that I was ordering from wahooart.com to the pattern and color of the wallpaper in my living room. I could search for artwork by subject matter and even predominant colors. Then I customized the frame online because the site allowed me to match the frame style with different wallpapers, one of which looked like ours.
