I'd like to showcase in this post the singular talents of Daniel Cortes, the artist who has accepted the challenge of illustrating the Steampunk Holmes series for Noble Beast publishing.

As the hub of the industrial revolution, Victorian Britain and its culture will continue to be one of the strongest settings for Steampunk fiction. That said, it is not the only legitimate setting. After all, even Jules Verne’s most memorial character, Captain Nemo, mentioned more than western European aristocrats in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. "Do you think I'm unaware of the suffering people and oppressed races of this planet, the poor to be comforted, the victims to be avenged?"…

Many in the romance writing community know historical author, Deeanne Gist purchased a full set of Victorian clothing. She wants her books to be as accurate as possible.
Her clothing came with a 17 minute instruction manual. This article has a video.
