The Jabba clutch and slave Leia coin purse

March 14, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is a clever bit of fashion from Etsy seller Cat Penfold. Slave Leia is attached to evil Jabba via a chain. The coin purse is attached.. yeah, don’t need to spell it out. It just works. Ideal for convention going? Or would you recommend an over the shoulder bag?

Jedi Ariel and Rapunzel with lightsabers

March 14, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

These two illustrations are examples of the art of Ralph Sevelius. Based in Atlanta in the States, Ralph is a professional illustrator and animator and it’s easy to see why. I’ve subscribed to his blog as he promises more Disney Jedi goodness. I have a good feeling that this year I’ll have a more creatively […]

One crazy formula for Pi Day: 1337% of Pi is Everything

March 14, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Today is Pi Day. It’s March the 14th. You might write that as 3.14. Pi. As you know, Pi is an impressive value. It enables all sorts of mathematical wizardy. Can we make it better? Yes, we can increase it by elite. In other words; leet or 1337. What is 1337% of Pi? Everything. That’s […]

Crawling chaos evil LEGO bookends

March 13, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

You probably shouldn’t have any sort of crawling chaos as a bookend. The Nyarlathotep is not normally evoked to stop your rare collection of Dragon Warriors original RPG books from falling over. However, if you could somehow use crawling chaos LEGO bookends that would be an entirely different story. Then you could prop up your […]

An apology for The Complete Book of Elves?

March 13, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The Kickstarter for Torment: Tides of Numenera is still pulling in the funds. They made a promise that designer Colin McComb would apologise for The Complete Book of Elves if they crossed the $2.5 million stretch goal. I think this is a harsh thing to ask any author or game designer to do. However, some […]

Cthulhu Exterminates

March 13, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Friendly? I don’t think so. Inside their armoured hulls the Daleks are horrible, tentacled, green mutants with a bad attitude. These intergalactic horrors have gone beyond time and space. Are Daleks just mini-Cthulhu horrors? Perhaps? Let’s jump to the end, mash them all up, put them on a t-shirt and parade around the local gaming […]
