Some of the steampunk’d Portal designs I cleaned up for my panel at Steamcon yesterday!

I have lots of thoughts on how to effectively reinterpret a character through another cultural lens- steampunk, post-apocalyptic, superhero, what have you- but a lot of it revolves around maintaining a costume’s character, functionality, and aesthetic.  I’m sure I can ramble on about that at some point when I’m not recovering from con crud. :)
