Review of the Gadget Show Live 2013

April 3, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is my third trip down to see The Gadget Show Live and that allows me to see how the event has evolved over the years. The event is a large expo; six great halls in the Birmingham NEC filled with stands and stalls that showcase some of the latest tech (and the occasional future […]

Lady Kratos: Goddess of War

April 3, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A great bit of cosplay from Linda Le. Thinking slightly outside the box for this one and pulling it off with style. I’m sure God of War fans would agree. Photography by Sweet Sensation Photography.

Yoda takes on the Xenomorphs

April 3, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Who’s going to win this fight? Yoda or those aliens? This piece is by Toby Carr who said he wanted to do something sci-fi for a change. Let’s hope he does sci-fi more often!

Short movie: Premier Automne

April 3, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Here in Scotland it feels that the late Winter is finally on the retreat and that we might see some Spring. It’s a good time to share Carlos De Carvalho and Aude Danset’s Premier Automne. This short animation follows what happens when Abel, who lives in the winter, and Apolline who lives in the summer, […]

Dramatic Star Wars glass coasters

April 2, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I rather like this glass coasters from Entertainment Earth. These Star Wars images manage to cross the line from fanboy to art. Not only that; these feel like high impact art. Interesting art is perfect for the coffee table in the living room as it gives people something to talk about. I think these coasters […]

Joanna Gaskell: Elf barbarians and loyal geeks could put insipid network TV under pressure

April 2, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

[Back this Campaign] Standard Action is a webseries that follows a disparate group of heroes and would-be adventures in what’s clearly a roleplaying setting. The first season enjoyed tens of thousands of views on each episode. This Kickstarter has been launched to support season 3. Joanna Gaskell created the series, produces it and starts as […]

Comic Con Curves

April 2, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood 3 Comments

This piece by Andrew Hickinbottom will grab your attention. Whereas this is very much Hickinbottom’s style there is a clever social comment here. He says this is; A homage to comic conventions, and a tribute to those brave attendees who cosplay in skimpy outfits! Our star is clearly less than comfortable with the attention she’s […]

Steampunk GIZMODuck model

April 2, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood 4 Comments

This wonderful creation, mixing old Disney toons with modern meme, is a steampunk style GIZMODuck. The artist is Tim Wollweber and his portfolio is well worth watching. Do you remember GIZMODuck? He was a bean counter who worked for Scrooge McDuck but after an encounter with the robot suit uses the phrase “blathering blatherskite” to […]

DC’s Dark Universe might be their best chance against Marvel’s Avengers

April 2, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Guillermo del Toro was at WonderCon to help promote Pacific Rim, the mecha versus Kaiju film, and it certainly feels like that’s going to be a great movie. While he was at the convention he also talked about Dark Universe – that’s the working name, perhaps the final name – for the “Justice League Dark” […]
