Say Hello to the Steampunk Family!

[dexter0606]

Been playing around with the "Steampunk" theme and getting ready for our biggest show. Thought I'd add some of these fellows to the inventory.
First is an Elegant Beauty (my first steampunk attempt). Next is a Triton, followed by an Ultra Cigar and two Electra's.
I tried a different type of paint on the Electra's. I used a hammered black finish. It's a little more of a gunmetal colour.

Those are beautiful.

Nice look, Jeff!!

Especially like the last one---personal preference, but the chrome really sets off the gears and the interlock look is cool.

 

[keithkarl2007]

Last one does it for me also, pm on the way.

I like the look Jeff. Not to many gears to overpower, yet enough to look great. I'm with Ed on liking the last one.

 

[aggromere]

I think they all look fantastic and I am very, very jealous. Great pens. I like them all.

 

[Timebandit]

Love them all!One question.Where are you guys getting all of your cool gears and watch parts from?Some of those gears look wonderful.

What type of paint do you like using when painting the tubes for these??

I use a good quality spray paint - Rustoleum or similar. Just let them sit a day or two to let the paint set.
