Dunno if anyone here reads these when I put them up, but I did post a new feature of steampunk artworks over on DeviantArt...


Oh, and look. It's already getting trolled. How..... cute.

Awesome collection!

Pay no heed to the Philistine in the bleachers.

Ooooh. Shiny.

Somehow I missed the part where paintings and jewelry are supposed to actually do shit except, yknow, look pretty. Isn't art supposed to be useless?

That is a very cool collection. Do want.

Well, I don't know if I'd use the term useless, but yeah- it's there purely for aesthetics. There's not supposed to be a point beyond that necessarily.


What I truly find funny about this is that said troll's body of work consists of fancily-done-up welding goggles, none of which will ever actually be worn for welding.

I was quoting Oscar Wilde, "all art is quite useless." I have a lot more to say about art and functionality than that, so I was just using somebody else's condensed version.

LOL, I didn't realize that he was a steampunk artist too. Jealous much?

I remember that guy from the brassgoggles forum. He got his panties into quite a hypocritical wad and made a huge drama post when he left to start his own forum. He seems to have turned into a complete ass.

I also just replied to him because I had to point out that a LOT of the items in that particular collection DO function.

[winneganfake.livejournal.com]

heh. Pretty much just what I wanted to say to the guy as well. Just do me a favor, please- even if he does post more asshat level comments, don't feed the troll any further- we all know he's going to make an ass of himself, no point in giving him more ammunition to do so.

I saw that, and wanted to reply, but didn't...( Not my place, and I didn't want a flame war)

Speaking of hypocritical, I take it that he faved that pic of *me* wearing the jabot I made because he thought the jabot had a function? *snickers*

[winneganfake.livejournal.com]

...you mean there's not really a WMD hidden inside the jabot?



'scuse me, I gotta go re-adjust some fave's.....

[harlequin-elf.livejournal.com]

That only a special request feature, and it'll cost an arm and a leg. :P

Now I'm kinda curious.. He's back tracking a bit with lilibat commenting, so if it had been one of us lady who had put the feature together, would he be singing the same tune? (not curious to really find out though.. But it makes you wounder)
