Maybe it's just me, but when I think of steampunk, I imagine women wearing the bottom half of a dress and a corset. Usually corsets are worn under clothing and is similar to a bra. It doesn't help that lingerie is very similar in appearance to corsets
Also, useless gears on every single thing, even if they don't move. And tophats with a pair of goggles while also having a pair of goggles of the same type on the neck. And there are gears on the tophat of course.
Still shuddering about Clockwork Planet where t hey somehow rebuild an another planet mostly with gears and everywhere are just gears stack on top of each other connecting to nothing. It's just gears all the way down, because, that's how it works.
I love the casual disregard for questions about what happens when one of those gears jams.
This is of course in addition to the goggles he wears over his eyes
Naturally. You need goggles for your goggles!
