August Team Contest

Every month or so, the Steam Team runs a contest meant to inspire members to push the boundaries of their creativity. Each contest has a theme, and rules specific to that theme. The theme this time was:

Make It Work

Entries were required to have some working, functioning, or moving part. A working clock, a spinning gear, hinged wings...

Congratulations SteamSmith, whose Pirate Ship Revenge blew its challengers out of the water to win!

The two top runners up were Fantasies in Leather with a tophat with a working clock,And 19Moons with her Phoenix Steampunk necklace.

The next contest theme is Seam and Steam: a Challenge of Metal and Cloth. Stay tuned to see what fantastic interpretations team members come up with this time!
