[Back this Campaign] Love at First Byte’s Kickstarter campaign gets my attention through its shameless use of a cute attack dog. It’s an interesting juxtaposition to the well covered Elite Kickstarter which launched without a video or even any concept art. There’s something about the voice over in this pitch than reminds me of the […]
ScaryGirl totem
ScaryGirl is the creation of artist Nathan Jurevicius. She’s best known for the side-scrolling Steam game and her giant intelligent octopus guardian. Jurevicius reached out to the awesome talent at Creature Freak to commission some ScaryGirl art to mark her 10th anniversary.
Ultimate Avengers mural
End of the Line is an agency that produces quality, large scale murals, to support everything from movies to independent art events. They’ve just put the finishing touches on an Ultimate Avengers wall that had been hidden by a corporate hospitality tent that sprang up in London for the Olympics. The design is based on […]
Wonderful DC Women portraits
Deviant artist Kit from Japan has a fantatic collection of DC Women (heroes and villains) looking superb. These posters almost remind me of war posters with their pastel tones and lines but they also seem fun and friendly too. Which is your favourite? Via So Geek Chic.
Papercraft Psycho
This short animation, a homage to Hitchcock’s Psycho, is a wonderful bit of papercraft. It was made for The Oxford Samuel Beckett Theatre Trust Award. The creative team are Davy & Kristin McGuire and they captured the whole process in a fantastic collection of photos on Flickr. The three images below give you some idea […]
X-Men as Star Wars characters

Gambit is Han Solo (suggested name: Han LeBeua), Rogue is Princess Leia (suggested name: Princess Leianna), Nightcrawler as Luke Skywalker (suggested name: Kurt Skywalker), Beast as Chewbacca (suggested name: Coybacca), […]
Dante’s Inferno as a scary sandcastle
The talented folk at Villafane Studios have used their mastery over sand to create a sculpture inspired by Dante’s Inferno. The photography here is wonderful too, especially with the brooding clouds in the background.
Sesame Street of evil
You can buy these prints from Etsy and Isaac Bidwell’s store. Why wouldn’t you? We all like to see what happens when heroes turn to the dark side of the Force or become cenobites after a deadly pact. Perhaps Big Bird has had enough of politics?
Old photographs turned into spooky animations
These photographs come from the Library of Congress’ Flickr account. They’ve then been transformed into rather spooky and rather cool animations by the talented Kevin J Weir. Which is your favourite?
Towering metal dragon
Kreatworks, from Bangkok in Thailand, have a made-to-order metal work store on Etsy. It’s not cheap but is certainly worth a look. Take this dragon, for example, simply fantastic but it’ll set you back nearly $12,000.
