You need it… Labyrinth junk lady cosyplay

June 11, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Which was the most surreal scene in Labyrinth? It might have been the one with the junk lady. It’s especially weird if you imagine that the Labyrinth may have been entirely in Sarah’s mind. What’s far more straight forward is the fact this cosplay from Epbot is simply superb! She appeared in public for the […]

Interactive periodic table of fictional metals

June 11, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Yikes! It was 6 years ago that Geek Native shared a table of imaginary elements. Time for a new one. The latest comes from a company called Bodycote which specialise in heat treating various metals and alloys. Hopefully they’ve never had to treat any of the fictional metals and alloys on this periodic table. It’s […]

Let Darth Vader guard your home

June 11, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

There’s a Canary that defends our flat. The video camera looks nice, can see in the dark and detect movement. It’s pretty cool but it doesn’t have Sith powers. This design from Kim Hyeonseok and PDF Designers is also a home camera … and something far darker! Okay, other than scoring a truck load of […]

How much would the X-Men earn in their day jobs? [infographic]

June 10, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The career site Zippia took a look at their 25 favourite X-Men, their day jobs and worked out what they would earn in America. Some X-Men are known to be teachers and professors so that was an easy call for Zippia. The rest? They used the X-Men’s skills and judgement calls to decide on possible […]

Do you know which voice actors did which characters? [infographic]

June 9, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Fivesquid.com looks to be a river to Fivver. In other words; people will do mini projects for you for £5. Who might use such services? Busy geeks, that’s who. What might geeks be interested in? How about a family tree mapping characters to the talent behind the voices? Let’s not be too cynical; let’s enjoy […]

The original art was created by Charlie Shanton was kind enough to leave this note for Bonsch; Hi Thorsten, I’m the world builder at Zenimax that […]

A homemade laser revolver, improved

June 8, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is the mark II and therefore an improved design. The custom made revolver has a laser targeting system (which makes sense, right!) and is strong enough to pop black balloons and burn paper. Clearly we’re still along way off from having hip carried lasers as weapons of significance but we can have fun with […]

Clever quilled paper Pokemon

June 8, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

What is paper quilling? It’s the art of getting strips of paper, rolling, shaping and gluing together to create designs. There’s a whole reddit community for it. There’s also the work of Aimie Holdorf (aka wholedwarf – great self-nickname) and these paper Pokemon! There’s no doubt that the clever rolls of paper give these Pokemon […]
