For some reason, a developed a taste for Victorian styles. I'm not sure when it started. I only know that it is the type of thing I like. Part of it is due to my love of the mystical societies of the era. My diving into such groups has allowed me to develop a taste for the accessories associated with the era. I also like much of the literary output of those times. Not all or it, but enough to really like that type of work. This has branched into the so-called "steampunk" pastiche. The combination of steam-driven technology combined with the rebellious fight against oppression just sings to me. This also combines with the Modernist era that follows this one. I can't help it, but some of that same rebellious feel just segues into this era. As long as it is before 1925 or so, I am in for it. What else can I call it? This love has convinced me to fund another project, mostly because the work is set during this lovely ever-so-slightly Gothic building world. I don't really have the money to do so, but I needed to get in at the start. There should be an opportunity to provide more later, at the level I really want. For previous projects, I waited a few days or so, just to be sure it would work out. I missed out funding the last project, mostly to make sure I had the funds for one like this one. I don't really hate missing out one that one, but I wasn't going to do the same for this one. My biggest concern is that the project is going through with a different site, rather than the more familiar Kickstarter. I have read about others views on it, but I like this project so much, that I had to join it, regardless of what I felt for it. As I said, I didn't have the funds to enter at the level I would have liked, but I think I can upgrade later one, when the project is funded and winding down. I have already seen the first preview, and I like what I have seen, mostly. I already have ideas about what might need to be changed. For this project, editing is being encouraged right from the start, instead of waiting until it closer to being finished. I can't wait to see what others think about it later today.
