Ooops! That’s not the Iron Man I know. Shared to Imgur by buy Redditor HotDog804 this image shows three superhero word art posters lined up with a model of each superhero. Kinda. Sorta. This blogger rather liked the posters and successfully traced them to Kirkland’s (Hulk, Spider-Man, Iron Man) and found plenty of other superhero […]

Lonely machine dreams of the giant city robot

January 10, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Sven Sauer and Igor Prosavec are SA-PO. The artists are drawn to the idea of megacities. Can mankind cope with the rapid development of technology or will it outpace us?

Marvel and LEGO meet as cake!

January 10, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This tasty looking cake is from Keep it Sweet. There’s plenty more geeky cake greatness on that Deviant Art page. This cake is all types of cool – worth noting that Thor’s a bloke and Deadpool is still alive. How strange!

January 9, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It’s hard not to be impressed by Otis Frampton. He’s been featured twice on Geek Native before and is one of the two artists who work on “How It Should Have Ended”. It’s also worth checking out his t-shirt store. It’s his Hobbit and Lord of the Rings Facebook cover images that we’re looking at […]

Short film: Nightfall

January 9, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A space epic created by Valentin Schwind and with a soundtrack by Ivelina Nedyalkova. The soundtrack is beautiful but to imagine that just one person using a bunch of computers (a workstation, a rendering machine, another in support, etc) is incredible. The space opera has a dark lord intent on winning the Queen’s heart – […]
