Posts and Goggles

Hello everyone! Thank you so much for being here and looking at my blog and leaving comments. I appreciate every single one of you and it makes me so happy you all enjoy my art. I am just letting all of you know that my posts are now going to be once every two weeks. I am doing this because it takes quite a while to make the guns and I need time to do so. I hope that you guys will still view it whenever I post! Thanks for taking the time. Now, here are my Steampunk goggles!Just a little set I designed. It was a spur of the moment but I am happy with the way it turned out. This is the raygun from one of my previous posts. But this is my first post about something that isn't a ragun. I finally gave in and made myself some steampunk goggles!
The lenses are made of wall storage magnets. Similar to these!
In order to add some better steampunk colors, I added brass pins. And the eye fittings are made of scrap leather that I used for a sheath for a knife. The pins are more decorative than anything else.
I love the "cracks" that are on the lenses. They are actually just scratches that were made when my drill slipped on a hole I was making. It turned out to add the perfect touch!
