This teenager is a monster!

May 31, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Lara Wirth is only 16 years old, but she’s confident, talented and going places. Entirely self-taught she uses makeup to transform herself into wonderfully scary monsters. The video above takes us through the whole process but you can follow her on Instagram or check out a wee gallery below.

How off-duty superhero clothes have evolved [infographic]

May 31, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There’s always lots of internet discussion when a popular superhero changes their costume. There’s been some real progression in recent years. I think the 2014 Batgirl costume was a good one. There’s been the occasional Star Sapphire costume, though, that’s not been as well received. But what about the clothes heroes wear while there either […]

A real life version of Pong

May 30, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Pong is considered by many to be the first video game. What about a life action version of it? No, not with ping pong balls and a table – something more geeky! The masterminds behind this build are Daniel Perdomo, Alvaro Salsamendi and Constantino Voulgaris. They’re currently looking for a hardware incubator to help turn […]

Sizzling Overwatch cosplay

May 30, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

We all knew Overwatch cosplay would be as big as the game itself. As a result we knew we’d see some impressive cosplays but did we really understand what that meant? Step forward Jannet Vinogradova (support her here on Patreon). This Widowmaker is sizzling. The attention to detail so impressive. The eyes. The glowing element. […]

Paizo announces a new RPG: Starfinder

May 30, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Starfinder is Pathfinder in space. It’s Pathfinder in one possible future and the gods are acting strangely. The project is being helmed by Creative Director James L Sutter, has a microsite of its own and is due out in August 2017. Does that feel like a far future date for a RPG release to you? […]

Intense live action Deus Ex: Mankind Divided trailer

May 29, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

You’d be forgiven for not knowing – but this isn’t a trailer for a movie, this is for a computer RPG. Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is due out in August and will hit the PC, PS4 and Xbox One. Square Enix’s game is a first-person cyberpunk and will feature Adam Jensen again, following on from […]

Glorious new puppet concept

May 29, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Think there’s been much innovation in puppet design over the last 100 years? The last 500 years? This new concept from Barnaby J Dixon is really clever. The two handed design makes use of clever mechanics to create a puppet that can pick things up and point. The original concept came from a failed attempt […]

Leaving Las Vegas by Kid Apocalypse

May 27, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Geek Native doesn’t post much rap. Let’s improve the score by sharing this brand new release from Kid Apocalypse. Quinn Allan, aka Kid Apoc, aka a rapping mutant clone is back with a 3-song EP that explores the existential crisis of a comic book character abandoned by his creator in a universe hostile to his […]

Hey beautiful… let’s skip straight to the fun part

May 27, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Things in Squares is run by Cale as a way to stay active in web design, drawing and humour. I’d say this Magic: The Gathering / pub pick-up joke is good enough to boost the web comic’s readership.

Fancy mixing the Dark Knight into your tech porn? In a stunt to help promote Injustice: Gods Among Us Samsung have a special edition S7 Edge. Got to say – quite tempted by the S7 edge. What puts me off? TouchWiz. Whether you fancy the S7 edge or not you’ll probably have to admit this […]
