Re: Issue 1
I have just sent Mr. Ottens all the last details - I apologise to everyone who has awaited for this issue in baited breath I was quite busy with work and other things and so only managed to get things done now. However, I look forward to everyone's contribution.
BTW HildeKitten I really liked your photos, look forward to seeing more of your designs and work - have you ever considered pursuing costuming? Or am I ignorant to not have already realised that is your presumed occupation?
In Obscurum Reperio Veritas.

Re: Issue 1
Thank you kindly Piecraft
I am indeed working in costume and fashion design professionally, but I don't have any kind of fame so you're not ignorant at all
If you would like to see more (I do all sorts of things, not just steampunk), this is my website
http://users.telenet.be/houseofsecretsi … orporated/
One of these days I'll sort out a proper domain name for it
