Steampunk is just a genre/theme, it's not something you exactly "learn" how to draw. Though, typically with steampunk, there are a lot of machines, gears, engines, all those sorts of things involved. To help out with your drawing, you should just hit up google or some other site and look up pictures of real-world machines as reference images.

To me steampunk has is a more dark form of art. It has to be cast in the right light, and has a subdued feel, neutral colors with not much contrast, and an oldworld styling to the drawings, in addition to the mechanical aspects.

Attached is an example of a steampunk painting I did a while back.

what would happen if you added in more non-nutral colours?
