We’re all used to amazing special effects now and computer-generated awesomeness on the big and small screens. That doesn’t stop the pen and paper approach having a unique magic of its very own. A marketing campaign by Angies List, a site that wants you to get in contact with architects, is using the magic of […]
The Lusty Argonian Maid cosplay
The Lusty Argonian Maid is a book from the Elder Scrolls. It’s written by an NPC called Crassius Curio and is full of innuendo and suggested sleaze featuring an Argonian maid called Lifts-Her-Tail. This cosplay by Jenna Lynn Meowri brings the character of Lifts-Her-Tail to life. She worked with Del Nero Designs on the excellent […]
Short film: Looters
Looters is a short film inspired by Skyrim. I suspect many tabletop gamers will recognise the chaotic evil that sometimes take a hold of dice when it comes to random loot tables, though. The VFX here are the work of Daniel Vink, one of the Fury Fingers team who work along side the director/writer Andrew […]
Draugr Deathlord cosplay
While E3 rages let’s take the chance to look back at one of the computer RPGs that helped change the landscape. Let’s look at the undying Skyrim and, as it happens, the Draugr. With props from Punished Props and photographs from Cosplay Boom we’ve these two undead warriors looking as timelessly deadly as ever!
Horse cosplay? Just add Dovahkiin
Some cosplayers know how to make that extra effort and blow us away. Step forward Elwenae – or should I say “ride forward” – as this cosplay set up includes an armoured horse. Skyrim’s a game that’s carved a deep niche for itself in geek culture. Years later; we still recognise it. Wow. (Via Fashionably […]
Skyrim wild elf cosplay
It’s been an age since Skyrim came out, the blog has seen Skyrim cosplay but still there’s more to look at. In this case Jenifer Ann’s set isn’t new. It’s simply good enough to appear here. This is an elf who looks both exotic and no nonsense at the same time. That’s perfectly Skyrim. Photographs […]
On the Spot: Video game music
Tune in for Halo, Skyrim, Final Fantasy 7, BioShock and Chrono Cross. This video is done to support Player Piano’s Indiegogo campaign (backer link) and follows on from their “on the spot” jammin’ to Nintendo themes. It works like this: Tom plays clips of music to talented composer and pianist Sonya Belousova. Sonya then tries […]
Quirky enough to snuggle with a madcrab plush?
Mudcrabs! These little pests like to hide away on river banks in Skyrim and The Elder Scrolls Online (I know the first; assume the second). They’re annoyingly dangerous until you level up. Fancy having one to cuddle? You can! Gaming Heads are making high quality mudcrab plush toys that come with DLC so you can […]
Papercraft frost dragon
This Skyrim dragon is impressive. It’s hard to believe it’s made out of paper. It is, though, and deviant artist DaiShiHUN is at least kind enough to say it very hard to make! DaiShiHUN also feels this is technically a wyvern but that’s one for Bethesda to mull over. Fancy making one of these yourself? […]
