Description
In the recent past, my good friend daggerwilldo posted an interesting render in which the subject was an old-fashioned train. That inspired me to do this one, using a gleaming, shining, over-the-top model from DAZ called "The Spirit of Punk." Mention punk to me, and steampunk is never the first thing I think of. I think of 70's punk rock first, with wrestler CM Punk coming in a very close second. As any of CM Punk's fans will tell you, the "summer of Punk" referred to a very exciting period in 2005 when CM Punk put on some of the best matches in his career in the Ring of Honor promotion.
And so, in my very longwinded way, you now know why I titled a render about a steam engine after a professional wrestling storyline. I get this way when I am sleep deprived.

Enjoy!

Wow !!!! This is the coolest train. I love the Steam Punk nature. Excellent textures and lines. Way to go on a real winner of a render. Well done.
Thank you, everyone, for your thoughts and comments. Steampunk is a genre that I am not "fluent" in, so I'm glad that those of you who know more about it than I do liked this render.
