WYSIWYG: Looks cool, worth a try ! ( 5 years and 1174 days ago )

Irse: I'm getting the impression a lot of folks aren't really clear on what dieselpunk is (and isn't). I was afraid of that. ( 5 years and 1170 days ago )

spaceranger: Themes based on schools of art or genres often are difficult for some to understand. An Art School background would help but many have no art training. We do try to provide as much information as possible. The information is there, all they have to do is read and learn. It's an exciting genre with a lot of potential, people should give it a try!

Drivenslush: I think it's kind of cute to assign "Steampunk and Dieselpunk" into an Art Genre when they only came around in the early 80's when Doctor Who had been around well into the 60's and H.G. Wells was building a time Machine to discover the Morlocks in the 40's. It's sort of like nailing ceramic plates onto wooden tables. Art class was so much fun. So many authorities based on what other authorities had told or taught them. hehehe I.H.O.O.Q. ( 5 years and 1165 days ago )

A recruiting poster from an alternate reality. Rather than just having a Dieselpunk image I wanted to add the graphics which I find adds an interesting touch. Looking at the source reference I really liked the various poster designs so I thought I'd go that route myself.

Most of the work went into the vehicle with a great deal of fixes and modifications. The Rocketeer appears in many Dieselpunk images so I added him to mine as though he's endorsing the recruiting campaign. This is a real fun genre with many design possibilities.

This time, instead of chopping apart things and reassembling, I thought I'd try to make a creation in 3D. Beyond the beginner stage, I consider my techniques at this point to be intermediate - I've got more to learn, but am satisfied with this. SBS shows stages of construction.
