Spurious Contraptions & Other Steampunk Oddities

[Balthasar]

Unfortunately, the Tardis on Mars wasn't my artwork, and it isn't Vuldacon's box, that I know of - Vuldacon's is much better.

Here's an original, sort of:

Turanga Leela from Futurama, made by me with GIMP. From an Original Painting by Katie De Sousa.

It still gives off an interesting idea.
So now Futurama is being included too?

No, that would be another mod at another time. I was having fun with all of the concept art available for Dr. Zoidburg while looking for a Chthulu image. When I saw the De Sousa painting, I saw Leela in the hair and T-shirt and overbite and started playing with it, and that's the result.

Tardis on Mars? Have a look at The Waters of Mars.

Right topic, wrong thread - is this one of Plotinus' Victorian Gentlemen?

Sorry Chaps bit of an advert but for the grand sum of 72 pennies you can get the The Ultimate Science Fiction Anthology with heaps of ERB, JV and HGW reading. Get the Adventures Of Sherlock Holmes for free while you're at it. No Kindle required as you can download the Kindle For PC for free. I expect a similar offer is available at Amazon.com for our cousins across the pond

Learned to day that London had a telephone exchange in the 1880s. & that wireless voice communications were actually designed & demonstated during the the same era - Photophone.

Nautilus!! This is motivating me, in spite of people sending me 12 MB batches of sample images.
Must be readin' up on yon Verne literature.

 

[Blue Monkey]

Yeah, but did you open the door?

 

[Takhisis]

Irising peepholes, yes I have.

Incidentally, for anyone who's able to watch BBC4, there is an adaptation of The first men in the Moon on Sunday with Mark Gatiss which looks like it's going to be a lot of fun.

Can I borrow your license & use your home computer as a proxy to stream it?

Actually, let us know how it is since it may eventually be available in DVD.
