Hello everyone,

After looking at an interesting, creative mod from this thread: https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,64937.0.html

It inspired me to create the threads related to Steampunk and Petrolpunk era. I will create another thread related to Dieselpunk and Atompunk. Thank you Zflyer48!

Before I continue, I want to give a thank to NobleNerd for giving us the new name for the era between Steampunk and Dieselpunk, it is known as Petrolpunk.

The purpose of this thread is to share the pictures / screenshots with the community related to aircraft, tanks, ships, or any vehicles from Steampunk and interwar era. It can be historical, what if designs (Alternative historical), creatively designed by artists / designers, or retro futurism.

Just for the notes, steampunk is based on era of late 1800s - 1910s, along with Petrolpunk era (1910s - 1930s). I will start with some of the interesting pictures:

Ever play that old flash game Steambirds? That was an interesting steampunk / dieselpunk plot.

Basically, scientists accidentally invent a form of cold fusion in the interwar period. The discovery leads to the production of small and portable nuclear reactors, soon fitted in aircraft powered by steam.

Ah, nostalgia... it was before I had a real appreciation for retrofuturism.

That sounds awesome! If you have any screenshots or pictures related to that, we would like to see it here too.

Cheers

Some amazing creations there guys, hope ZFlyer is looking in.

I used to play first person shooters a long time ago, one I missed was the 'Order 1886' or something like that, it has a sort of alternate history, a new twist on the White Chapel murders, the destruction of Crystal Place and other things, some lovely airships in that:

What I do these days is watch the walk through videos, there is one on YouTube, good for a watch of something a little different.

Take care and be safe.

Wishing you all the very best, Pete.

Pete, thank you for the picture too! I especially am happy to see you and another enjoying the Steampunks + Interwar era, Dieselpunk era, and Atompunk era threads.

I wish you all the best too.

Stay safe and take care.

Cheers
