One of the dates in the SL-year I am looking forward the most is the Steampunk Hunt, or Steam: The Hunt, as its friends call it!
This year's theme was quite a welcome opportunity for me to do something new, since I never really delved (or dived!) into nautical things - and doing something new keeps us on our toes!
I rather quickly decided to make a small deep sea exploration submarine. It helped of course that it is a vehicle (and who knows me, knows, I love building vehicles), but they also have a natural cuteness and a quite distinctive design - and last but not least is there this famous novel about a Captain and his submarine by Jules Verne... so its hard to find a more steampunky turn to the theme really!
Another novelty is that this miniature is wearable, so it will accompany you everywhere you go - no matter how deep you dive!
Steam: The Hunt starts March 1 and will go throughout the whole Month. For more information, check out their blog.
The submarine will be available at the Drow Science Show-room (the hint is rather easy, so no worries, you will find it!).
