Steampunk Alchemist Gun
So I am working on this gun, for my steampunk outfit.
I'm going to go for an Alchemist look
Its still not finished. Need to add a little more to it to make it right.
I'm going more silver and black steampunk than bronze and white.
Though as you can see I have added some gold and bronze.
The steampunk dragon caduceus is the same as the patch I got for my steampunk bag
(though it occurs to me I probably haven't yet blogged about the bag.)
Anyways it's a match
Its a light and sounds gun so the two white balls light up all red and blue but I want to still put a few coats of glow-in-the-dark on the balls for when the guns lights stop working.
The semi-pointed tip is also glow-in-the-dark.
These were originally highlighters from some medical company when I was working as a medical receptionist.
I have glued the tips inside them shut so hopefully that will prevent loss of the ink.
The ink is contained inside another tube so they look pretty cool and I've wanted to do something like this with them.
So I have attached two of the lids to the top of the gun and this will act as the loading device.
Then the 4 capsules are interchangable
Book Review: Riveted (Iron Seas #3)
Riveted by Meljean BrookMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Oh I really loved this one. The ending made me cry and the action left nothing wanting. Annika is marvelous innocent but no social concience to tell her what not to say and a really unique style. Small yet able. And David - WOW a real steampunk man with alterations, though neccassary its nice to have one of these guys as a lead. There is a 'MINE' moment but David doesn't seem to actually want to own Annika which makes a wonderful change.
Can't wait for the next book to come out.
This book can be read without reading either of the other books as these characters are completely seperate from Yasmeen and the Iron Duke.
