Description
"His name is Harold" - Primus: Harold of the RocksSo I decided on something a bit different to take for London Expo in May!
I am *not* exhibiting there, but...I will be dressing as a Steampunk lady with sandworm contraption/accessory and walking around with my buddies XD
I think he needs some more accessories.
I plan on giving him a top hat and monocle to go with his moustaches 
(yes, they are moustaches, though you can't see them that well!) He's made from:
-Beige and chocolate coloured fleece body and tongue with Copic marker shading
-Inner felt mouths and teeth
-Pleather fin and teeth with stud detailing and gold paint detailing
-Various cog, gear, wheel and clock "steampunk" buttons and beads
-Pleather name strip with gold paint detailing
-Pleather and felt moustaches
-Squeakers in both of their mouths
As for my expo outfit, more pictures to come when I finally dress up, but I will be mainly dressed brown, (dress and jacket) with a wine coloured wig and black top hat.
MOAR WORMIES! and a snake!
(Sandworms are my weapons of mass production
)*Also available to purchase after the Expo.
Prices are $68 each, and can be customized to order.
All my snakes and sandworms are 1 meter in length, and personalised with a name of your choice.

as much as I absolutely love this, it isn't really steampunk.

I beg to differ, but I suppose everyone is entitled to their opinion.

That's understandable! Actually to be honest I was being a little harsh in my first comment, I think it looks more steampunk without the gears, and I think the reason why I said it was because I'm a strong advocate against the "glue some gears on it" thing.
But I really really like this, don't get me wrong, it's just a little bit that bothered me, sorry that I was brash in my original comment, I didn't mean!

No, no not at all
I was just curious as to why you thought so.
I simply made this to go with my outfit and I was quite new to steampunk at the time.
Now realising being creative and inventive is a crucial part of the movement, the next one I make I will look at adding bolts, eyelets and metal strips to instead.
Thank you for your feedback!

No problem!
Just remember the idea of steampunk is that everything does something! If it looks a little... out of place, it probably doesn't fit in. That's my best advice in that subject!

I just want to say how happy this made me.

A top hat and a monocle would look awesome on him
love the colours on him, his colour scheme makes me think he should be a creature in that film 9

See, I want to make accessories for him, but I don't want to make it look like there's too much going on
