The Crios RPG

December 23, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

[Back this Campaign] Crios is a Kickstarter pitch from Battlefield Press. At the time of posting they’ve raised $1,500+, asking for $3,000 and have about a week to do it. The pitch is pretty good; a mashup of fantasy and World War I action using the Renaissance Deluxe roleplaying game. I suspect they may be […]

December 23, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Lots of new dragons and a certain key character are revealed in this How to Train Your Dragon 2 trailer. Vikings riding Dragons certainly makes for an interesting world. Toothless seems to be extra cheeky as usual.

The truck mech

December 22, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This incredible mech build was made out of an old Nissan truck and several bucket loads of scrap metal. The mech stands at about 12 feet tall and only took a month to build. Okay, so it probably can’t move but that’s no reason to strip the word “mech” from the concept. You know exactly […]

Face capture that orc

December 22, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Have you seen any of The Hobbit movies? You might recognise this animation… and I think it’s nice to peer behind the face capture. WHat do you think? Pretty impressive? Will films of the future do without actors all together? We’ll have captured their likeness and will be able to animate them like puppets. Who […]

In a blog post that describes the supplement as “long-awaited” Green Ronin boss Chris Pramas offers up $10 […]

December 22, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The prestige of the team putting together Space Dandy is without question. There’s Shinichiro Watanabe and Shingo Natsume as Directors, Dai Sato, Keiko Nobumoto, and Kimiko Ueno as scriptwriters and Yoshiyuki Ito for character design. In the States Space Dandy will show on Toonami. That leaves the question as to whether it’ll make it’s way […]
