You must now make a setting based on art of what late 1800s artists thought the year 2000 would be like.
So, like steampunk but without any of the associated faggotry?

Where the fuck does a whale bus and underwater croquet make you think of non-faggoty steampunk?

Next up, a lighter-than-air train powered by passenger pigeons.

What problem do you have with underwater croquet, you peasant?!

Yeah, it's called steampunk.
But kudos for posting Robida's art, anyways.
>>43870119
No. Not at all.
>>43870111
Wow. The artist was fucking dumb. Didn't understand how floating works.

>mechanical wings

I made this setting a while back, was pretty fun.
I also enjoyed taking period accurate values and translating them. For example China ans Japan fused into a mighty yellow empire, Blacks now how India style ethnic quotas in congress due to the Negro Rebellions and the USA composes most of North and South america and parts of Europe.

2000? More like Prohibition era.
>>43870070
An extending ladder is more efficient.
>>43870073
Where is their fuel? What powers their tiny motors to keep them aloft? Their hopes and dreams?
>>43870082
Victorian-era wacky races

This is pretty much just a hot-air balloon without the balloon. Unless they're trying to convey that the yellow light is a death-ray.

Evil little kids beating an eagle with a stick so they can murder its children.
>>43870111
Strap an engine on this thing and remove the whale and its basically a tourist submarine.
>>43870125
This is pretty much one of the earliest imaginings of a 3d printer.

Stupid kids, this isn't how you play underwater polo. You need to ride SHARKS while hitting the ball.
>>43870260
I bet he still plays on land!
>>43870205
Not him, but to be fair, there is a steam/dieselpunk novel series with essentially that premise, except the whale was flying instead of swimming.
>>43870205
The fact that that's pretty steampunk, if you think of the genre before it turned into a fashion statement for cosplayers and college girls on etsy.
>>43870321
actually steampunk is current person imagining the future of some era if the main tech style didnt changed
>>43870082
They got automobiles pretty right.
>>43870082
That's just Mad Max.
>>43871456
You mean Mad Max is just Battle Cars.
>>43871537
You mean Battle Cars is just Death race 2000.
>>43870515
>people playing croquet is punk
>>43871566
Get your timeline right.
Battle Cars - 1993
Car Wars - 1980
Death Race 2000 - 1975

If only.
