A Steampunk Experiment

My first steampunk book!

Created as a birthday present for , it's a celebration of everything that makes for Instant Steampunk - leather, brass, rivets and cogwheels, with a zipper thrown in for good measure. In the pic, the book isn't quite complete - since then I fixed up the corners where there are small gaps from the leather folding.

This was probably the most time-consuming book I've worked on, but _so_ satisfying. Nothing works out stress like hammering rivets
And if you want to see more rivets in action, visit 's pages, where this little beauty [link] is an example of what happens when a mask maker gets their hands on rivets. I'll put up a sketch of the original design, and you'll be able to see how wonderfully well she's translated it into three dimensions
