As cool as 90% of Leviathan/Behemoth/Whatever is, I don't think it constitutes "light" steampunk, no. Or steampunk at all, for that matter.

I see smoke, I see walkers, I see strange contraptions, and for me that is enough.

A living airship would be cool though. You get to walk around in side of it, maybe use a couple messenger lizards, kick a Hydrogen Sniffer, poke a, what, 20-foot-tall Russian Fighting Bear. The Japanese have Kappa, and they tear apart ships without actually tearing apart metal- just jump'in outta the water and tearing the crew to pieces! Oh, and the British even have a whatchamacallit, a Kraken.

But, I'm never entirely sure how they got to successfully splicing animals together and creating monstrosities, whenever we can't even get a human-sized walker to work >:/
