    (Violently blows door off with tea pot cannon) Did somebody say steampunk!?!

    Steampunk is awesome. I'm actually retrofitting a nerf gun as a steampunk gun for this Halloween.

    Awesome what's the costume

    I might actually make a teapot cannon

    It'll probably end up being for a friend, I'm not sure if I'm going to do Steampunk this year. But the gun will look a little like this:

    I'm using the same model

    Only very basic stuff. I've made a few pairs of goggles, tried making a gun once before. I've always been a fan of the medium, but haven't ever stepped too deeply into prop creation or cosplay.

    I'm about to start a large hammer for a Harley Quinn cosplay that will be the biggest prop to date for me

    Bird watching, Harry Potter reading, Neil Gaiman loving, history geeking grrrl.... I'm also a super nerd about booze... Like the history of booze. Kind of esoteric, but yeah. Post-goth, used to manage a couple of Steampunk-y bands too. Hi!

    Not at all actually, I think video games are pretty main stream anyway now so don't even count as dorky/geeky behaviour anymore, not like they did when I was a child and used to sit watching the loading bar as my Amstrad loaded a game from cassette tape hahaha There are lots of board games, and similar, as digital versions now though! I play Magic The Gathering a lot in my Xbox One, in fact I'm off to play a few games right now :)

    I'm afraid I've left my video-gaming days behind me and have left that part of the family business to my sons.

    Did anyone play Marathon, the precursor to Halo? Freakin' loved that game and wasted many grad school hours on it:
