Haru:
I just posted this in the media section, but it fits here just as well (or maybe even better):
Just finished "The Strange Affair of Spring Heeled Jack" and "Curious Case of the Clockwork Man" by Mark Hodder in rapid succession. It's an alternate history steampunk series and an all around excellent read.
And what's best, there are 2 more books in the "Burton and Swinborne" series, and I'm going to get them as soon as I possibly can. :)
GWPfark:
Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura
Great game, available on GOG.com
Xerjester:
Music: Abney Park, Steam Powered Giraffe, the Cog is Dead, Clockwork Quartet
Books: Really digging the Century of Steam series by Cherie Priest. Boneshaker in particular is pretty rad.
Movies: My wife and I just came across a awesome one called Tai Chi Zero (sequel: Hero). Dude. Kung-fu versus steam-driven technology/expansionism with modern humor sensibilities? Oh. Hell. Yes.

I've been looking at that series for quite some time trying to decide whether to read them. I'll have to give them a try.
I personally enjoyed Chris Brak's books: The Translated Man and Other Stories and its sequel Mr. Stitch. They are a bit rough but I found them very enjoyable.

Hello. I've been a Jim Butcher fan for a few years now but just now registered to post in this thread.
I am not a cosplayer or anything like that, but I am a long time roleplayer and miniatures gamer. My only real steampunk related interest involves both of those two topic. I've been a huge fan of the Privateer Press line of products since they were new, and they are now getting fairly well known and popular. If anyone here is familiar with Warmachine, Hordes or the Iron Kingdoms roleplay setting, you will know what I mean. Here is some of the art.
