Our Steampunk Cylon contest is long over, but this waylaid entry from Raymond Tan, which came in too late to qualify for the competition, is cool enough to warrant a look back. It's certainly got a bit much of the Heavy Metal flavor in there — what with the tough babe stroking its leg (is that a steampunk Starbuck?) — but the detail and artistry is unquestionable (check out those gears inside the chest panel). It even looks influenced by this prototype Cylon seen in Caprica, which *ahem* you can now buy on DVD direct from our parent company, by the way.

Hit the jump to see a larger version of the design and a pic of the Caprica Cylon, and here's the big ol' gallery of all our Steampunk Cylon entries, just for old time's sake.
