Turns out a can of worms isn’t so bad after all

April 28, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This surprisingly cute can of worms was designed by Andrew Bell. The worms have articulated heads and tails. The can is optional. The figures are about 8.5″ x 6″ x 4.5″. I feel this is something every games designer needs on their desk. This is a reminder that opening a can of worms isn’t always […]

Short film: C

April 28, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

C is a brave short sci-fi film. This is the story of Lieutenant Commander Malleck and her mutiny during an interplanetary cold war. The film is impressive enough, having funded via Kickstarter nut it’s worth noting that neither CGI nor greenscreens were used in it. All the effects you see are props and filmed “in-camera”. […]

First Squad review

April 28, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

First Squad is an anime set on the Eastern Front as Russia fought the Nazis. We watched it with English sub-titles and most of the dialogue was in Russian. The plot is straight forward with the twist at the start rather than the end. We follow a young woman, with a red blindfold and a […]

Cute DC and Marvel counterparts

April 28, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is an excellent collection of art and insight by Darren Rawlings. He’s partnered up DC and Marvel heroes so that… well, so that they’re good counterparts. It strikes me as a good exercise for when you’re stuck on a plain, train or in an automobile. You pick a DC hero and you pal has […]

Want! Prototype Pac-Man hoodies

April 27, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There’s a chance that Insignificant Fish might make these Pac-Man hoodies. They’re just in prototype and currently the Insigificant Fish etsy store is bare… but we live in hope. I think there’s a small risk some folk might end up with ghost eyes for boobs. What I most want isn’t Mr Pac-Man himself but the […]

April 27, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Does this count as a motorcycle doing TARDIS cosplay? A Transformer TARDIS? Or just a really cool bike? This TARDIS cycle was photographed by Lejon A Johnson and Andrew Siguenza at Phoenix Comic Con last year. Via Geek Art Gallery.
