Seeking Steampunk costumes

Archive: 42 posts

So I'm making a steampunk-esque RPG-type explorable sandbox-ish town with quests and NPCs and all that (I published a short, incomplete concept for it in the beta), and I'm in need of costumes for the NPCs...I'm pretty much out of ideas for Steampunk costumes right now, as I've already made quite a few.

Soooo just post a picture of your Steampunk-themed costume(s) here, 'cause I need some inspiration. It can be a chef, a merchant, a random citizen, an inventor...Anything, really.
If I use any of your costumes (or if any of the costumes in the level are heavily influenced by yours), I'll be sure to give your credit, of course.

Thanks in advance!		2011-01-25 06:22:00

Try to get 100% on all the Da Vinci Levels, as well as Victoria levels. Quite a few steampunk esque items in those levels.2011-01-25 12:13:00

She can make them and dide, she mentioned that, she's out of ideas on what to make, not lacking costumes to make them.

Also, Zim, mind posting some examples?
I'd gladly elp....but I've never been too sure when i comes to 'steampunk" tbh, like what it is specifically.		2011-01-25 13:47:00

Steampunk, eh? But what period exactly, medieval-ish or futuristic?
I would help you, but, you know...		2011-01-25 13:54:00

Hmm, the only one that seems to be fit may be...

...this one! It's rather simple, Sackula's vest, jeans from the Heavy Rain pack, a tie, basic gloves...		2011-01-25 18:15:00

Back in LBP 1 I made a cool steampunk costume out of the astronaut torso and Screaming Mantis's helmet. I used the rust sticker to make it all ... er ... rusty, then I put a porthole on the front, some bolts on the sides, and a vent or two on the body. Looks a little Big Daddyish, which is sort of what I was going for. The new decorations could make variants on this.

If you're looking for other inspiration, check out Brass Googles (http://brassgoggles.co.uk/blog/).

Okay, for a steampunk gentleman, definitely get the new brown tophat from Avalon's shooter level.
I have a costume with the electric coil decoration on the hat and big steampunk pipes shooting off the side.		2011-01-25 21:12:00

I'll post some examples later, since I'm on my PS3 browser right now.
@Sack-Jake
Actually, I've already got quite a few top-hats in there lol. I think I forgot to mention that I need some really unique outfits that (preferably) don't involve the Flyboy wings, any kind of top hat, or that pilot helmet with the ponytails, 'cause I think I've used those 'nuff by now, unless you can make those costume items look very different from what they are.
Oh, and thanks for the help everyone. 		2011-01-25 21:53:00

Hmmm... Well those Sack-in-a-Clock goggles and that combover hair might look cool on a mad scientist character. I've made a bunch of steampunk costumes, I think I'llupload a few pics later.2011-01-25 22:00:00

I already know which decorations and costume pieces are useful for steampunk things, the problem is putting them together into a super cool costume. So really, right now, I just need pictures of any of you guys' steampunk costumes!2011-01-25 23:57:00

Sorry for being off topic. If it's not too much trouble, the next time you are on LBP2, could you flip you stickers to sort by theme and tell me which one it's under? Thanks in advance.		2011-01-27 00:07:00

Well...erm...I'm sure you can draw inspiration from them without the costumes looking TOO much like them, because then my level and yours would have too similar costumes!		2011-02-01 20:45:00
