Anime fidget spinners
Are you in on the fidget spinner craze? They’re surprisingly addictive and live up to their name. Any extra energy? Spin the crazy little device and see how long it distracts you for.

The cosplay pool party that is Colossalcon
An anime convention held at Kalahari Waterpark in Sandusky Ohio? Yup. It’s Colossalcon and it has been going for years. The cosplay is a challenge there.

It’s wrong on so many levels to say ‘sexy’ and ‘C-3PO’ in the same sentence. Kay is performing art here and some incredible art at that! Mind you, cospaint involves […]
Are Destiny’s Exo the most underrated race?

LEGO egg bursts into a Facehugger
Daniel Stoeffler’s Facehugger and egg is a LEGO masterpiece. The Facehugger itself is a meter long while the egg is some 50cm high. That feels like about the right size to me. Deadly LEGO. We’ve featured LEGO Facehuggers before on Geek Native like this one from Carlos Valero but hats off in a messy bloody […]
11 illustrations that mock skimpy female armour
Is there a time and a place in RPGs or fantasy novels for chainmail bikinis? It’s a debate. We’re (should be) beyond objectification but if someone wants to dress their character in skimpy armour why shouldn’t they? Wherever there’s a heated debate there’s humour. The following eleven artists have all chipped in and helped contribute […]
