Statix Press’ Alisik trailer

January 18, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It makes sense […]

January 18, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Beat Down Boogie’s cosplay video from the ever popular MAGfest. We can see the evolution of the cosplay video here with the use of Snake and Ghost to add a reoccurring element and far less emphasis on skimpy costumes.

Heavy Metal’s Taarna as an exquisite model

January 12, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Taarna first appeared in 1981 In the famous French sci-fantasy production Heavy Metal. She is the last of the Taarak, brave warriors, and is equipped with a deadly gold sword. Despite her age Taarna remains a fan favourite. I’m still fond of this mashup of her riding Toothless rather than her usual pterodactyl-bird mount. I […]

A look inside: Shadowman #1 – Fear of the Dark

January 11, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

John Carter / Edgar Rice Burroughs tribute art print

January 10, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

John Carter of Mars is all the rage again thanks to Modiphius’ Kickstarter. That’s straight-forward. Less straight-forward is whether it’s possible to be John Carter or even an Edgar Rice Burroughs geekfan with models, art and merch given the tendency of the heroes to wear very little clothes… I think ‘PaladinFreelance’ has the solution. Their […]
