Excited and Cynical

We go together...

...or we don't go down at all.

Don't get me wrong, I'm beyond thrilled that it's a Steampunk theme. But I'm afraid they're going to cutesify it, like they have with other themes. And Steampunk has never been something that's screamed "kawaii" to me.

I'm hoping for lots of brown options among the winners. Gaia has lots of different brown tones in their items, and I've found it challenging sometimes to match them up together.

I've noticed that too. They're always just a shade off.

There will probably be one, maybe two wins that are more on the cute side.

It's not that cutesy is a bad thing. But the winning entries have a tendency to be more cutesy than anything, even when the theme calls for something edgier.

I tried to do a more less cute design. XD But I have no clue if it worked.

i'm gonna do an entry with a very specific color scheme. and by "very specific" i mean i'm going to take some hard to match hues gaia's done, use eyedropper on them, and go to town.

Honestly, I'm hoping for more colourful entries to win.. Steampunk can be colourful too, I think it looks fantastic with teals.

I hope people know that steampunk isn't afraid to get colorful and is very punk.
Punk isn't cute, that would be an insult.

And I'm in love with your plaid steam outfit. It's stunning!

I'm hoping that there aren't too many unnecessary cogs everywhere.
