Yes, really awesome work as usual. Nicely put together and lovely paint job.

You need to watch Steam Boy

*sigh* And, I've several friends who'll cry out 'steampunk, not VSF'. I disagree, but a bit TOO much handwavium for me to try to apply to gaming. ;->=

Neat toys, though...

Whats the essential difference between VSF and steampunk then? Are they not simply "alternate ages of steam that are about the Victorian time"? Surely we could call the whole thing "19th century fantasy scifi" and be done with it?

I can see some reason for trying to split them, though more of degree than kind.

Steampunk doesn't neccesarily have anything to do with the 19th Century. That however is a totally different thread and one that has been discussed to death, do a quick search and several will come back, lets not bring it up here
