Yeah, that lost lot are really based on the original concept art for Star Wars than any 'steampunk' reimagining - hence the Firtz Lang influence.  Bloody lovely, though.

I'd rather have seen a steampunk version of Star Wars than those prequels.

The first design for Drath vader ode look laittle more cumbersome with the way his gas mak is attached to his chest plate. The second design which resemble the way he looks in the Classic Star Wars seems better.

Yoda hardly looks much diffrent. Unless he's steam powered automaton.

I love the etching designs on the Steam-Trooper armour.

C3P0 looks bad-ass with his steam-punk enhancements.

I wanna see the Steam-Punk Falcon.

What would it be called?

The Centennial Falcon??

With gear powered drive propulsion systems.

With emergency steam-kettle drive engine...

Able make point-five past clock work.

Made the Kessel dirt track in less that twelve revolutions of the sprocket.

My appologies to more mechanical minded who would sahake their heads at my hapless attempts to describe such a contraption.

Well I reckon it would be a Steamboat.

How about a steam powered flying fortress.

As this was what George Lucas had based it on in the first place.

The Fling Fortees, that is!

]As for Seam Powerd. I do doubt it.

Most admittadly it wouldnt get far off the ground if it was steam powered but some exceptions should be made.

I should really ask, if those type of planes existed in the steam age.

If not then, how far would these revisionists be prepared to break the rules.

Han solm, some sort of Air courier?.

Is there mention of a certain "Cavonite" Thryll?
Title: Re: Steampunk Star Wars Figures......
Post by: ThryllSeekyr on 16 April, 2008, 12:48:06 PM
'Cavonite.'.....

 What ever it takes to get the moon.

Though, I would imagine that Steampunk Star Wars universe would be the microsm of classic Star Wars universe.

They would be confined to one world becuase of the limitation of steam.


Then again maybe their stretching the rules.

I had no idea what the word meant before. Though both Cavonite and Cavorote have both taken me to some article on the Jules Verne story 'From Earth to the Moon'

I vaguely remember some discovery like that been made in old film adaption of the book.

Its in the Pax Brittania line of books from Abaddon
to which Al Ewing uses it to great effect.

It is coined in Jules Vernes' from the earth to the Moon, by the Professor who invents it.

"Though both Cavonite and Cavorote have both taken me to some article on the Jules Verne story 'From Earth to the Moon'"

Cavorite would be from the H.G. Wells story 'The First Men in the Moon'. I don't read as much these days as I think I ought, but I believe Jules Verne's story featured travel by projectile fired from an enormous gun rather than anti-gravity paint.

I remember cavorite being the anti-gravity substance  featuring in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, although I don't know where the term originally came from.

That fella's website is class Johnny. Wonderful models that are extremely French, if you see what I mean. An example of a very particularly Gallic style in modelling/animation which reminds me of, amongst other things, "Belleville Rendezvous".
