It’s not every day that I post pictures of pants on Geek Native. One day you’ll be able to buy these Boba Fett undies for yourself too – but not today, they’re not yet for sale. Ashkey Eckstein is the voice of Ahsoka Tano. You know; from the Clone Wars animation. She’s setting up Her […]

Darth Vader walks with you: Galaxy S on Docomo
This blog would be worse off without great ads from Japan. Starting with a Japanese ad is a good start, adding in sexy tech like the Samsung Galaxy S makes the post sound even more promising and when we can throw in some Darth Vader Star Wars. What do you think? I think I’d probably […]
How to build your own Jedi training device
Everyone remembers the floating training device Luke first practised on. I’d wager quite a few people wondered what it would like to own one. At least one person, Trooper Trent (a Stormtrooper? Oh noes), has made one. Here’s how. The video shows typical geek cunning! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NS6HEe4LavM What do you think? Fancy trying to make one […]
Sexy Disney Princesses are Sith Warriors
I know you’ve been waiting for pictures like this for a while. We have Joseph and Deviant Art to thank for these wonderful illustrations. Is it wrong that these pictures are sexy? The Disney innocence juxtaposed with the Sith power and corruption? Or is it simply the tight clothes?
Kinect through night vision – the video
You might well have heard the Kinect looks kinda cool through night vision. I’ve stumbled across this HD video showing just what happens. I’m not an expert but it does seem to me as if the Kinect bathes the room with dots and then detects the motion through them. I’ve seen some demos from Rare […]
Stay Puft Graffiti
What’s your take on graffiti? Is it always vandalism or can it sometimes be art? My own point of view is one of the problems is that many of the people who engage in graffiti aren’t sure of the answer themselves. If it’s art then some of them do not seem to be sure of […]
McKellen to Balrog: You Shall Not Bounce
The god that is Ian McKellen finds himself reanacting the famous “You Shall not pass!” scene from Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring during the Q&A session at the Savannah Film Festival. He had to do it without knowing what the Balrog would look like. Pretty cool huh? I wonder how many hit […]
Gamer Art: Fairy House
Saw this picture and thought straight away of high school RPGs which seemed to feature a lot of exploring though the woods, meeting fairies and other mythological encounters. Nevertheless, pick a gaming group today and let them discover a toadstool house and see how they react. Do they sneak past? Do they try and say […]
Castle does steampunk – Punked
I don’t mind admitting I’m a Castle fan. Okay, I may have watched the first episode because ithad Nathan Fillion in it – but I just clicked with the show. I think it’s balanced perfectly. It’s really easy watching and often my first choice of record TV when I get back home after one of […]
Steampunk gas masks
These leather works of art are by Tom Banwell. They’re fantastic. They’re slightly spooky – in an “are you my mummy?” sort of way. They’re also fantastic inspiration for a whole host of steampunk RPG ideas. Do check out his site.
