Overcompensating??

progress been slightly slow over weekend, but managed to gather enough information on what steampunk is and how it is incorporated into deisgn and style. though i may of overcompensated  how much research ive done into this due to the fact the guidelines of the project is grounded more into reality 19th century rather than the fantasy fiction side of steampunk. nether the less, i have collected many pictures and artworks, aswell as quotes and article sections on the core features behind steampunk which all dipict steampunk in its many forms, and should hopefully prove useful along the journey of the project.

Next i will explore into victorian settings and more of a reality historic based 19th century style, which will be the primary reserach for helping produce most of my design work, based on the environment, color and architecture.

Also discovered a good set of Ebooks today, which detail level design. reading them over the coming weeks should prove invaluable  for when i start my design and development stage of the project.

Edit:


The above is a basic mood board i put together in photoshop to dislpay architectural designs within the steampunk world. images below are just a selected few of many. they show a great deal of how the design of the interiors and exteriors of steampunk worlds work and how the color schemes blend in to create the mood and feel for the enivronnment and setting. Aswell as a probaly somewhat irrelevant character image, which i spent a little time looking into, for general reasons of going out the way of the project criteria to help further understand steampunk more.

  1. If you have done the research, don't just talk about it post it on your blog. Also, check your emails as I have left you a message in regards to you displying images on your blog that you don't have permission for.
