Steampunk Birds by Jim Mullan

Artist Jim Mullan took vintage hunting decoys shaped like crows and small birds and turned them into steampunk bird sculptures!

Really using the word “steampunk” loosely here.
Like, drunken-sorority-girl loose.
I’m not a fan of steampunk, but I love these! Probably because of what Wes said
Can’t help thinking “Bagpuss” & espeically “Professor Yaffle”…
Nice work though.
Yeah, moratorium on the word “steampunk,” please? These birds are way too lovely to marginalize like that…
I see neither steam nor punk in those pictures, but they do look like cheap knockoffs of the brass owl from Clash of the Titans.
was that bottom feather fashoned from a left handed tape measure?
You should also check out Leo Sewell who uses found objects to creat anatomically correct sculptures often in huge scale. Amazing stuff!
i met this guy at an arts fest, not only is he a genius, hes gorgeous and humble!!!
Thats more recycled junk than steampunk. Cool but not necessarily steampunk.
