DieselPunk!!

WELCOME to DieselPunkMachine, accepting art related to Dieselpunk!

What is Dieselpunk?

Dieselpunk is the recently-coined name for a subgenre that has existed for decades. Named for the engine that gave us the modern automobile, airplane, navy and war vehicle, dieselpunk represents the aesthetic of the two World Wars, the interbellum period and the immediate post-war period. Dieselpunk combines the artistic and literary influences of the early 20th century (including pulp magazines, Art Deco, serial films, film noir, radio dramas, wartime pin-ups and contemporary art) with postmodern technology and sensibilities. Where steampunk ends, dieselpunk begins!

Membership: Just Click JOIN above or comment saying you want to join and an Invite will be sent out over the air-waves to you.

SUBMISSION RULES:

- Dieselpunk only. This isn't the right venue for steampunk, general sci-fi or general war stuff.

- Diesel-related images (noir, pulp, art deco, Roaring '20s, World War-related) may be accepted if they have the right postmodern sensibility and craft. Vintage photos and scans will NOT.

- Raygun Gothic / Fallout / '50s / "atompunk" isn't really dieselpunk, but it is related. Art of this style will be accepted and sorted into its own folder.

- No Nerf weapons or squirt guns. Your Maverick is not anything-punk, no matter what colour you paint it.

- Be nice, have fun and stay diesel!
*komixefantasy is holding a contest to design the cover for his Italian SciFi literature magazine 2000AnniDuri
It combines comics and written stories created by himself and others in an anthology format.

You can submit an unlimited number of entries, but the deadline is February 14th
He's looking for retro/pulp-style artwork, preferably related in some fashion to one or more of the stories featured in the issue.  Covers have featured only black-and-white art in the past, but he is opening the contest to color entries as well, though he mentions that he would like artists to consider limited poster-style palettes and retro color schemes, in fitting with the tone of the magazine.
Examples of past covers are shown in the full information.
(This is his first contest for the cover, though!)

The first prize is the cover, but he plans to feature standouts among the non-winning entries in the magazine as well, or possibly even use them as covers for future issues!

If you're interested, check out the full info at:
[link]
It includes descriptions of the stories included in the issue as well as more info on the rules of the contest itself.
(remember that this is for an Italian magazine, so be prepared for a bit of strange wording ala google translate)

Also, If you're interested in helping to promote this group or dieslepunk art in general,
feel free to send the group a note about becoming a contributor!
I'd personally love to see this group become more active in the future,
but for that we need active admins with the spare time to dedicate to maintaining the group!

I couldn't find a way to submit to other galleries either, so sent mine to the only place I could: Featured. I suppose the powers-that-be will rearrange things as needed?
