12 Masks of Halloween: #3 Velociraptor Dinosaur Mask
Those blow up T-Rex costumes have been all the rage this year. It’s too late to use them to be original this Halloween. As an alternative you could find nearly £650 and get this handmade Velociraptor mask instead. Like yesterday’s Nightmare Before Christmas mask, this dinosaur is created by Tentacle Studio and you can buy […]
Are you excited by the Nintendo Switch?
I remember hoping that Nintendo’s Wii U would have a controller that let you go mobile, play outside and join in epic games like Monster Hunter. I didn’t get my wish but that seems to be exactly what the nextgen console from Nintendo offers. This first look at the Nintendo Switch (no Wii branding) shows […]
12 Masks of Halloween: #2 Jack Skellington
I don’t know if it’s a clever move by the artist, Tentacle Studio or just a fluke of the exchange rate, but Jack Skellington will currently set you back £666. The mask is for sale on Etsy and designed for an adult sized head. It’s made from paper mache but has a waterproof laquer for […]
247blinds launch horror collection
I like these. 247blinds have released a horror collection in time for Halloween. They’re even offering nearly 70% off if you grab one before Halloween. It’s tempting to do that as its a limited collection and I think they might sell out. Yeah, these are real blinds and not just mockups for a marketing stunt. […]
12 Masks of Halloween: #1 Horned Raven Mask
The 12 Masks of Halloween is a Geek Native tradition. Just as some people use the 12 Days of Christmas as a countdown to that gift-giving holiday, we use the masks as a countdown to the celebration that’s become all about dressing up and spooking people. There are always some outrageous, interesting and downright expensive […]

Now based in the USA Kentaro Kanamoto is a talented illustrator and concept artist. You can check out his professional portfolio here or his Deviant Art gallery.

A World Without (Dice Pool) Limits: A Review of Shadowrun: Anarchy
Ah, Shadowrun. Perhaps one of tabletop gaming’s most evocative settings, saddled with one of its most complex role-playing systems. For years, gamers have marveled over Shadowrun’s amazing world where Man meets Magic and Machine, then backed away slowly when they hit waves of rules concerning character creation, combat, magic, the Matrix (Shadowrun’s virtual reality internet), and so much more. There […]
The Magic: The Gathering card for your cat
This might be a familiar story. You’re trying to play Magic: The Gathering with your partner but your cat has other ideas. In this case, one frustrated Imgur user resorted to designing her own MtC card.
The Dungeon of Horror
[Show me more Dungeon] There’s a lot to like in Phil Postma’s art. Sometimes we get great mashups like this vintage Star Wars colletion and other times 80s nostaliga. The Dungeon of Horror comes straight out of tribe nostalgia but puts a wonderful RPG spin on it even if the design is really challenging some […]
