Alien girl

No, we are not alone. Here is the proof – a young and friendly alien girl named Galaxy. I stumbled upon her on my rooftop a few days ago. I just couldn’t miss her spacey turquoise color and her giant antenna ears. The alien girl was simply glowing in her fluorescent orange dress, although aliens are often represented in unusual silver clothing or even without it. There are five beautiful brooches on her dress, made of precious gems, which can only be found on very distant planets. She has spent most of her life on her home comet, which has been passing by colourful planets and shining stars for more than a million years. But now it is time for vacation and, believe it or not, our planet Earth is a real tourist hit up there in the Universe.

Ne, nismo sami. Tu je dokaz – mlada in simpatična vesolja Galaxy. Pred nekaj dnevi sem jo zagledala na svoji strehi. Njene vesoljske modrozelene barve in velikanskih tipalk enostavno ni bilo mogoče spregledati. Vesoljce se pogosto predstavlja oblečene v nenavadna srebrna oblačila ali celo brez oblek, toda Galaxy je prav sijala v svoji živo oranžni obleki. Krasile so jo tudi broške iz posebnih dragih kamnov, ki se jih najde le na daljnih, nam nevidnih planetih. Večino življenja je preživela na domačem kometu, ki že dolga tisočletja šviga med pisanimi planeti in svetlikajočimi se zvezdami, sedaj pa je napočil čas za dopust. In ne boste verjeli, naša Zemlja je letos tam zgoraj pravi turistični hit.

Did someone say steampunk?

Steampunk is a sub-genre of science fiction, which involves an era or world where steam power is still widely used — usually the 19th century and often Victorian era Britain. Works of steampunk often feature anachronistic technology or futuristic innovations as Victorians may have envisioned them; in other words, based on a Victorian perspective on fashion, culture, architectural style, art, etc.

This is why steampunk dolls are usually made off metals like copper, brass, steel and iron, rivets, gears and cogs, wood, leather and glass. But have you ever seen a steampunk art doll 100% made of yarn? Here it is!

Victoria loves reading books and is passionate about all kinds of machines. She's dreaming of becoming an inventor just like her big idol Leonardo da Vinci. She is approximately 14'' (35 cm) tall and it took me 17 hours to finish it.

Steampunk ali parni punk, kot bi mu lahko rekli po slovensko, je žanr znanstvene fantastike. Dogaja se v svetu in času, v katerem se še vedno redno uporablja parni pogon (ponavadi gre za viktorijansko Britanijo iz 19. stoletja), vključuje pa futuristične inovacije in razno tehnologijo. Prav zaradi tega so punčke, narejene v stilu steampunka, najpogosteje sestavljene iz raznih kovin, kot so baker, medenina in železo, zakovic, kolesja, zobnikov, lesa, usnja in stekla. Ste kdaj že videli tako punčko, narejeno iz preje? Tukaj je!

Victoria rada bere knjige, strasno pa se navdušuje tudi nad vsemi vrstami naprav. Sanja o tem, da bi postala inovatorka, prav tako kot njen idol Leonardo da Vinci. Visoka je 35 cm, za njo sem pa porabila kar 17 ur.
