Dieselpunk + Steampunk Culture

Greetings, you fine ladies and gentlemen.

Hello, I just found this website and found that the era and culture strikes a chord with me. So I joined and am having a blast doing research and coming up with clothing ideas.

A bit about myself, I live in Seattle, Washington and because of my researching my family history I've come to be intrigued in the Weimar era and its art, culture and music. I also enjoy horror and the macabre worlds of Lovecraft and Poe. In the Steampunk circles here I'm known as "The Whist Guy," because I teach the period card game Whist at SteamCon.

I look forward to getting to know you all and learning more about Diselpunk. The photo I've attached is me and my girlfriend from my company holiday party last December. Yeah, I look a little demented in the shot but it's the only one where we aren't being disgustingly cute for the camera. :)
