Transformers: People in Paint
Body paint can certainly transform people. In this case we’ve the expert touches of body painter Allyson Averell, with model Rosie Mae and photography by Joey D. There’s more than just body paint going on here, of course. Yeah, there’s the helmet but I think Rosie’s eyes are wonderfully spooky. Those robot eyes are a […]
Mysteries and nightmares: A review of Threat Analysis – Hominid
I used to love SLA Industries. I only say “used to” because I don’t get to play it anymore and it feels like a lifetime ago I played last. I had a strong GM and it was a game of secrets. We were brave operatives doing our very best to keep the population of Mort […]

Short film: A Tale of Benjen Stark
Fans of the Game of Thrones fiction and TV series might remember Benjen Stark. In many ways it was Ned’s brother and First Ranger of the Night’s Watch that inspired Jon Snow to Take the Black. But what happened to Benjen? It’s hard to say in Game of Thrones because it’s not finished and full […]

I think it still counts as cosplay but I wouldn’t be surprised if we start to see a sub-culture of fashion based, inspirational, designs like this. Fashionplay? Cosfashion?
