took a mini sabbatical and attended

(Trumpet fanfare)

Gear Con 2012

Went to a few Crafter's Labs & made a couple of nifty treasures.

Learned a bit about men's fashion & women's corsetry.

Attended a class on Bartitsu which,

 has served a certain Mr. Holmes well on many occasions.

Picked up some gorgeous treasures from

Steampunked Out. So much leather goodness.

And listened to a couple of decent bands:

Professor Gall & Nilika Remi.

Also drooled over the goggles at

So pretty and practical.

Also attended a lecture about Victorian medicine, 

some things from the past I'm perfectly happy 

not reliving...and that's if you were healthy.

(Let's just leave it at ugh.)

Onto the fancy bits

Pictures!!!

I did not get names but everyone was very nice

about having their pictures taken so without further ado, 

Here we go!

I just love her whole outfit..

Such style 

The gentleman standing is so very tall.

Simply gorgeous 

Possibly a little impractical for the bakery *sigh*

Professor Gall & his band. I do enjoy a good banjo.

Wings x1

Wings x2

A lady and her heavy artillery are welcome everywhere.

Quite a dapper chap.

Now, that's a coat!

Simply lovely

SCIENCE!
*mwahahahahahahahahaha*

Wings from the flip side 

Oh, Tesla makes me happy.

Absolutely the Gentleman.

Russian Royalty

I do believe she has a bug on her chapeau, I do hope it's friendly.

 Tesla Coil in action!

(mwahahahahahahahahaha)

(Sorry about the side view, I am having a few technical issues.)

Like the belt, the hat, heck the whole ensemble.

Again, sorry about the side view-editing is very limited on the video side of things

*Ahem*

How else to end such a splendid time that was had by all?

I think nothing but this will do.

Flaming Bagpipes!
