Ideas for new -punk aesthetics
You’ve heard of cyberpunk, and steampunk, and, if you’re cool, Solarpunk. I am going to be making new -punk styles and describing them here.
Eldritchpunk
-So usually, these things are based on whatever power source they’re using, so in Eldritchpunk, they use some otherworldly energy to power their machines.
-Set in port towns or lovecraftian-esch cities. 19th to early 20th century.
-Boats. Fog. Ocean things.
-Machinery with pumping pistons and glowing tubes filled with otherworldly sludge. Some machines or vehicles built around creatures.
-Eldritch Horror and such are semi-commonplace. Possibly even otherworldly beings living within cities as civilians.
-Kinda steampunky but less steam and brass and more fog and wet wood
Podunkpunk
-Code Name: KND and Craig of the Creek energy. A bunch of kids in a small town making weapons and stuff that probably shouldn’t work and yet it does.
-Gumball guns and slingshots. Treehouse bases. Lots and lots of duct tape.
-Small towns with kids riding around on bicycles here and there protecting the town from whatever.
-Double A batteries, random lightbulbs, that stuff.
Runepunk
-Powered by rocks with runes on them or things of the sort.
-Could be taken in the direction of either Nordic Viking aesthetics with runic technology and semi-modern, or semi-modern people discovering runic technology and using it for floating structures and such.
Biopunk
-Think the game Scorn with all the technology being made of pulsing meat and intestinal tubes.
Rhythmpunk
-Machinery being controlled in some way shape or form from music.
I kinda lost steam (funny joke) after Podunkpunk.
Anyway here are just some ideas.
