Geek Native has pointed the spotlight on Sillof’s Star Wars modded models before. It’s easy to do it again with his new line of “Serial Wars”. Conjure up memories of the golden oldie serials like Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers and that’s what we mean by “serial”. The result is a line of Star Wars […]
Cute baby Wampa
This rather cute baby snow wampa was created by Scrumptious Delight (Flickr link) for an art show called “Stitch Wars Strikes Back” which will run in Lauderhill, FL, from August 12th to Sep 25th. Scrumptious Delight has an Etsy stall and perhaps if there’s enough demand we’ll have wonderfully handcrafted and cute baby wampas zooming […]
Making a mini-cannon from a BBQ lighter
I’m sure this is a challenge we’ve all wrestled with. You have a BBQ lighter. You’ve a large collection of airsoft pellets. Sounds good? But you’ve no way of using your BBQ lighter to fire those airsoft pellets with geeky vengence. Good news! This helpful video will walk you through the steps needed to transform […]
The Trollface train
I can’t tell you much about this picture – but I wanted to share it. This scary train was surfaced by a Russian LiveJournal account without any credit to any artist. It’s described as “trollface”. I can certainly see trolls with faces in there! I rather like “trollface train” as a title for it. Checking […]
Batman Dinosaur
How’s this for a mashup? Batman plus dinosaur. Dinosaur plus Batman. This phot was taken in Pittsburgh USA along with the suggestion that it’s part of the city celebrating the filing of Batman Rises there. Let’s hope it’s not a fake like the Catwoman photos that whisked around the internet a few days ago. Photo […]
Army of Darkness cake!
This is my boom stick! Oh. No. Wait. This is my chainsaw cake. Silly me. Isn’t this impressive? A bloody chainsaw and hand as a birthday cake! I can only imagine the fun the baker had. How much red dye went into this creation? Via Obvious Winner.
The Aeon Project: Beyond AR
The Aeon Project came in first in the Imagina Awards for Best Design and Communication. It’s about going beyond AR as we practise it today – and we certainly use Augmented Reality today in numerous phone apps and with Microsoft’s Kinect. The following is a relatively short YouTube that highlights and sells the concepts. If […]
Chompy piranha plant earrings
My gut feeling here is that these rather painful looking earrings will sell well. Let’s face it; they certainly earn plenty of geek points. The piranha plant is famous but it’s pretty hard to do anything with it visually. Step forward Lizglizz and her Etsy shop who proves to be the exception to the rule. […]
Duck Tales + Doctor Who = Doctales
Take a cartoon from easier years – Duck Tales. Take a sci-fi series that’s still with us, manages to be British and yet international at the same time – Doctor Who. Mix the two together, folding rather than stirring and season with some artistic talent. What do you get? You get Doctales! You get River […]
Angry Birds bra
There are sexy bras. There are practical bras. I’m not entirely sure if this Angry Birds bra counts as either of those two. It’s a geeky bra but I wonder wonder when you’ll get the chance to show it off? During strip Magic: The Gathering? That would certainly earn you some geek cool points. This […]
