How about a picture of the whole thing? hard to see the point of the random pieces?

However creative!

Is this just some Sci-fi thing I don't understand...I mean its really pretty I like the way it looks but what the heck is it?

when you say, 'this is not shoped' do you mean the 'glow' of the gem? because i believe that phenomenon is called chatoyence.

i was about to make a witty comeback about how using an ancient nintendo 64 socket could be steam, but then i remembered that it's from a mouse and i felt sad

/thanks for the feedback, anyway! :)

You've got some good stuff in there, I didn't think that socket fitted with the rest.

His stuff is Cyberpunk Dystopian/ Steampunk
even though its still out of place...
