Ægrus Somnium

i really enjoy the steampunk genre of art and style, as well as the post apocalyptic look but today it’s annoying me, mainly because, of course, people are fuck heads and don’t understand stuff, you can easily find “art” slapped into the steampunk genre, and thats the problem, you can make a leather strap to cover your eye and slap a gear on it and call it steampunk, it’s retarded, steampunk is supposed to be, well, it is fiction based set in an time in the world where steam is used as energy, like say modern time yet you computer runs on a fucking steam engine, so set your mind in a time like that, yes, use your imagination, it may hurt a bit, now if you lived then and needed an eye patch would you stick a fucking clock gear on it for no fucking reason, no, if it was something, very similiar to the whole postapocalyptic thing, things were built with what they had to do what they needed, like you’ll see some items from these genre just stuck full of rivets, ok, if lived in a post apocalyptic time and stumbled upon a leather glove would i punch fucking holes in it, fuck no, would i wire a gear to the top of it, again, fuck no, there’s no point in doing that, it serves no purpose, so if you people wish to work in this style do it the way it’s intended, don’t just stick a gear or copper pipe to something and call it that, make it seem like it’s there for a reason, lets see, copper pipes carry fluids or gas, gas…. oooooooh steam, there we go, so make the pipe look like it’s carrying steam to a seemingly necessary part, a copper pipe, and a giant gear hooked to the end, good idea, it’s a mace made out of items at hand, see how easy this can be
