5 of the best Harlock Space Pirate fan illustrations

April 30, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The collectors edition steelbook of the 3D/2D Harlock Space Pirate reboot was released this week. Harlock’s a hugely popular franchise, a hero who’s been with the geek community for a while now and I’m sure the steelbook will be popular. I’ve called the feature length animation a “reboot” because it does re-imagine the series. You […]

Short film: Project Zero

April 29, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Project: Zero contains zombie violence. The angry son of a weapons billionaire has a history of being thrown out of school, violence and attacks on the poor. In a last ditch attempt to curb his aggression, Daniel Virgil is sent to an exclusive club where members hunt zombie-like “degenerates”. Will it work? Looking for another […]

Know the monsters of Earth [infographic]

April 28, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

Travel booking site Venere made a spirited attempt to display just some of the mythological monsters of the world on an infographic. My first impressions were all positive. Eagle-eyed readers might spot problems beyond the spelling of “Colombia”, though. There’s always a chance that your favourite monster is missing. Some people have asked about Yeti […]

Would the Muppets ever do Game of Thrones?

April 28, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Warning! Warning! The Mountain vs Blue Viper. Might be ick. Might be spoilers. This clever and somewhat left-field mashup is the work of Dan Luvisi who shared it (behind a gore filter) on Deviant Art. He’s hugely respected by the Deviant Art community; especially for finding the time to talk about tips, tutorials and art. […]

Dragon and Cthulhu bags for gamers and geeks

April 28, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There’s a lot to love about Cthulhu. Who doesn’t like to cuddle a dragon? At least… I think that’s the case. Certainly with Capall Mara‘s excellent “handmade quirks” where you have felt bum bags that look like Cthulhu or soft dragon backpacks that’s the case! Like these? Check out what Capall Mara currently has for […]

This watermelon hides a fierce dragon

April 27, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Valeriano Fatica is an expert sculptor. In this video he takes a simple and innocent looking watermelon and finds a rather scary looking dragon in it! I think the eyes are my favourite feature. The eyes seem to look forward, suggesting a depth that I struggle to believe the watermelon ever had. This is a […]

Bake your very own dragon

April 27, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

[I need this] Can you bake a cake? You can bake a dragon! This is a clever design from ThinkGeek. I can think of little better way to treat your local gamers than to supply them with dragon cake layered with sugar and bright colours. Your goal is to get the D&D group so hyper […]
