Thermoelectric Atomizer
Echoleader brings us this outstanding Thermoelectric Atomizer Laser. Just when I'm ready to write the whole steampunk thing off something like this comes along and restores my faith. The Atomizer is also available as a resin kit.
That looks awesome. I haven't had the opportunity to do Steampunk, but it looks like a lot of fun. I do the Live Action Role Play, but mention the word larp, and see the people run. I think the reason is because they think larp is hitting each other with foam weapons. I call these people closet gamers. They are afraid to identify themselves as gamers.
It's a lovely kit, but it really is far more dieselpunk or 20s-30s classic SF than steampunk, the grip flourish aside. Hugo Gernsback would have loved it for a cover and it would have fit right in a Buck Rogers serial.
