Artist and illustrator Chet Phillips has generously donated our next Steampunk Month giveaway: a complete set of 20 monkey steampunk cards! Each card includes a biography and color portrait of a Steamship Wars-era monkey: soldiers, explorers, assassins, mercenaries, pirates, and more! Commemorate steampunk monkey history (or just really confuse your relatives around Christmas time) in style with these fun collectibles.
The winner will receive the full set of twenty cards, as well as an 8“ x 10” print of his or her choice of portraits, to be signed by Chet.
The Rules: To get this giveaway, all you need to do is comment (once—duplicates won’t count) on this post. The winners will be selected at random. You have until noon EST on Tuesday, October 27th, to comment here. Please check your e-mail on this day—you have 24 hours to respond before I select a new winner.
And if you like his steampunk monkeys, be sure to check out his other fun projects, like his Literary Pets series: literary greats of history, if they were cats and dogs.
Torie Atkinson is knee-deep in prizes. Stay tuned for more!
Steampunk + Monkeys = win!
These are the coolest Steampunk monkey cards I’ve ever seen!
Wouldn’t those be steamunk cards? Very cool. Count me in.
These rock.
Monkeys? Steampunk? I’m in!
Yes, please!
Sweet!
This would make an excellent addition to my collection.
Again, a Fall post endeavoring to win a prize, one said set of steampunk monkey cards. Lo’ tis a wondrous prize indeed, even if my entry is, by necessity, sans a mildly popular letter commonly found in correspondence, but lacking it upon mine keyboard, not to be found in mine entry!
Ah, I would put all of these up all over my wall.
OMG, Want! I might order a set anyway when I don’t win. :)
I must have this… I’m a code monkey myself and I need to explore my roots.
Spiffy. ^_^
Tuesday the 27th or Monday the 26th? You’ve got the deadline wrong. Trust me, the Gathering Storm comes out Tuesday, I’ve known that date for a while now ;).
Whichever’s the case, this isn’t just a correction, but an entry to win these cards.
These are brilliant!
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmonkeys!!
I don’t play any sort of card game, but these would look awesome on my wall!
Do steampunk monkeys eat steam powered bananas?

I am a lawyer and I speak on behalf of Gorilla Grodd, Solovar and Titano. Steampunk Monkey Cards infringe on my clients’ image rights and raise serious doubts regarding appropriate representation of Monkeys in the Media. To ensure that the cards don’t defame my clients as well, I would like to see a set forthwith. Thank you for your compliance and speedy response.
Cool cards, great art work.
Whimsey plus Simian Steampunk, a true delight!
Absolute genius.

If an infinite number of steampunk monkeys were given an infinite number of steam-driven typewriters, whose body of work would they eventually produce?
It is to be amazed. And impressed. The distinguished gentlebeings represented herein are being hono(u)red in a quite suitable manner, ‘twould seem.
This is very awesome!
Monkeys make everything hilarious!
