The Stormtrooper just looks like the artist has been playing too much Fallout 3.

Part of me wishes this is what the actual Star Wars characters were like. George Lucas makes everything so fluffy and kid-friendly. The whole series could use a darker, uglier, more intense reboot.

Ripped off David Lynch's take on Baron Harkonnen on that last one.

Steampunk is what a derivative artist does when they lack real talent and/or original ideas. It's the equivalent of scraping dried up vomit from the floor, taking digital pictures of it and signing your name to it, then posting it on the internets, making sure to add "Star Wars" to the title for search engine optimization.

No, sometime Steampunk is all original - but it still usually sucks. Victorian guys with straw hats, bow-ties and candy-cane shirts - and laser-blasters, women in giant yellow dresses and parasols, with robot attendants, and a seedy, coal-burning, soot covered, sepia-toned underbelly of the emerging urban world. I get the *convention*, I just don't get the attraction to it.

Is that a steampunk colostomy bag on Yoda?

Don't get me wrong, the designs are well done and creative, just think that liquid under Yoda's chair is unfortunately placed.
