Old Number Four, a steampunk tractor:
I saw a lot of tractors like this growing up, as my step-father is a part-time farmer, and I’d end up at fairs, tractor stores, and collectors farms who were into steam power.
I’m pretty sure that was the first thing that whetted my appetite for steampunkery, and I always liked that the wheels were made out of iron.

Good luck at ComicCon!
From the tops of local watertowers to spelunking caves and waterways, I have enjoyed the highs and lows. My childhood fort was in a railroad car that was won in a game of poker by my neighbors (the OTR Truckers/Bikers). Model-T cars and old farm equipment were in the barn and in the yard to play on. The funnest was the dung trolley that ran on a suspended rail out from the bottom of the barn. You could fill it and push it and it would roll out into the pasture and if it hit the end, it would relase the bottom and all the crap would fall out. I rode that so many times and had a great time doing it! (Dreaming of simpler times)
