Enter a world where fashion is Victorian punk, technology hasn't surpassed the steam engine, and inventors' workshops are filled with bizarre gadgets. This is steampunk — an intriguing new genre that is fueling a growing subculture and making its presence known in mainstream media.

How to Draw Steampunk is a groundbreaking book — the first ever published on this emerging cultural phenomenon. In it, talented illustrator Bob Berry guides you through the process of drawing, painting, and digitally illustrating steampunk's marvelous characters and contraptions using easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions.

From Strongmen and Sky Pilots to Ladies and Lolitas, Berry makes it easy to create steampunk people, pets, and machines — even a flying galleon equipped with sails and propellers.

As you learn how to create iconic steampunk images, authors Joey Marsocci and Allison DeBlasio explain the origins and history of steampunk, its cultural relevance, and other interesting facts about real-life steampunk machines and their makers. Thus, this one book teaches you not only how to draw a fascinating new genre, but also how to understand it.
