LEGO fuses Evangelion and Gundam

April 17, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This creation mixes Evangelion and Gundam styles together. I say that up front because I didn’t twig from the title “EVA Gundam”.

EA admit to using GW’s tank design – except not

April 15, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Yesterday the question was asked is EA stealing Games Workshop tank design?. It was a fair question to ask because the Games Workshop designed Baneblade looked an awful lot like a tank that later appeared in EA’s free-to-play Command & Conquer Tiberium Alliances. The catch?

April 13, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It’s impossible not to be impressed by this cosplay. This is the work of deviant Artist DonneAnonyme and its simply fantastic. War, one of the four horsemen, is the star of the first Darksiders computer game. This cosplay does the character justice.
