Forged by Morgorth: The LEGO balrog

Actually, it was’t Morgorth who is responsible for this particular Balrog. For this impressive LEGO build we can thank masterbuilder Chak hei Mok. Do check out his Flickr stream for some very clever builds. I think Chak’s worked wonder to recreate fire with LEGO. This is not a creature I’d want to encounter while playing […]

Mince pies and Cthulhu eyes

December 22, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Tasty and full of unworldly power. These pies use the humble and (probably) not evil strawberry to summon Cthulhu spawn into the kitchen.

Christmas decorations supported by Sugru

December 18, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Sugru is mouldable glue. It comes in small packets and feels like blutac. Once open you’ve about half an hour to play with it, roll it into shape with your hands and stick it where it needs to go. Then it takes about 24 hours to cure when it becomes a rubber-like substance. I’ve used Sugru […]

Difficult? This is a Dark Souls Fire Keeper cosplay

December 17, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Adorn your ears with these Squirrel Girl earrings

December 17, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Squirrel Girl, hero of the Great Lakes Avengers, has yet to go mainstream but her geek-fu is strong. Who knows? Perhaps Guardians of the Galaxy 2 will slay the box office and studios will start looking for another way to do a non-grim, lighthearted, proper hero story. If there’s a Squirrel Girl movie then here’s […]

This is not Margot Robbie!

We’ve seen some incredible look-a-like cosplay over the years. Have you seen cosplayer Santatory as Margaery Tyrell from Game of Thrones?
