Superhero Week: Dance your way through this 360 degree Batcave tour

July 6, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

It took 40 animators to make this dance party happen. There’s that many Batman characters packed into the Batcave. The CGI-effect conjures up memories of claymation and makes full use of Vimeo’s tech. You can scroll around to change your perspective and tour the Batrave. Just watch out… someone might ruin the party! Let us […]

Superhero Week: 10 of the most popular free superhero RPGs

July 6, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Let’s be clear about this – DriveThruRPG’s ‘Pay As You Want’ allows you to pay nothing to download a high-quality RPG or accessory and very often that’s what the author encourages you to do. There’s a suggested price. Geek Native recommends paying what you think is appropriate, not what you want, and if the author […]

Superhero Week: 6 speed draws of superheroes!

July 5, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Have you watched a speed draw on YouTube yet? I find them mesmerising and a reminder of how little (read: none) artistic skill I have. I love to watch them, though, whether we’re watching a Photoshop pro user speed through the controls to bring a hero to life or someone with inks in their hands […]

Up close and space opera – An Empire of Silence review

July 4, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Empire of Silence is the début novel from Christopher Ruocchio and “The Name of the Wind” meets “Dune” is how some people are describing it, which is no mean feat! I think this is an excellent way to summarise the feel and the scope of the sci-fi. We have an autobiographical account from the exiled […]

Superhero Week: Batman’s pint glass

July 4, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Is Batman’s pint glass some ordinary glass pint with a cheesy bat logo printed on the side? Nah, it’s far more Gotham than that. Batman’s pint glass is entirely matte black in finish and with a gloss Batman logo to stand out. That’s how you do it! [Make this mine] This is a post from […]
