Sure you all know how much I love steampunk in all its manifestations: gadgets (especially the functional ones), literature, interior design, clothing... oh, I could keep on for ages, but this time I want to share some images that have caught my eye as steampunk takes on mythology, fairytales and popular fiction.

All of them were entries to the Steampunk - Myths and Legends challenge on the CGsociety website.

Myths and legends go first:

Atlas, by Blas Ingraham


Brisingammen, by Rasmus Berggreen (Brisingammen is Freya's necklace --> from Norse myths)


David and Goliath, by Roger Nobs


Hephaistos, by Thibaut Claeys


Judith and Holofernes, by Aly Fell


The fall of Icarus, by Nigel Quarless


Folklore, literature and films weren't left aside:

Mary Poppins, by Daniel Cestari


Trapped, by Melanie Delon (an interpretation of The lady of Shalott)


Alice's adventures in Steamland, by Guillaume Dubois


Cheshire advice, by Eric Claeys


Don Quixote, supressor of engines, by Marek Madej


Steamnoccio, by Fabricio Moraes


And my personal favourite: Grand feeding of fish, by Elena Pigareva (about Gulliver in Lilliput)
