Steampunk Anti-gravity Pack


For SteamCon II I added an anti-gravity pack to my costume.

Here is the original design I made about a year ago.



3D prototyping.


Working on the side tanks. PVC pipe, foam shaved down to domes for the ends, then covered with Bondo and sanded to a smooth finish.


Early assemblage of the parts. Googly eyes used for the rivets. MDF used for the engine/heat sink-looking part.

First coat of primer.

Plasma disk used to add some spiffy electrical flare.

Harness with breathing apparatus.
