Magical and unusual RPG weapon art
A few days ago on reddit shrcat asked; I’m looking to do some practice/honing of my illustration skill — I was hoping to get a couple interesting ideas out there that someone would enjoy seeing my interpretation of – particularly items like weapons or magical items, etc. Anyone interested? And as a (former) pen & […]
Mad scientist builds working Tesla Gun
The mad scientist in question is Rob Flickenger. Dangerous Rob had help from Hazard Factory and Hackerbot Labs to make this gun – and it’s a real gun. Sure, it may look clunky and something out of a comic (actually, it’s out of The Five Fits of Science) but this device can shock at 20,000 […]
Paperclip weapons
Dan4th Nicholas, a Flickr photographer happy to release pictures under Creative Commons, has a good deal with his friend Brett.

Assassin’s Creed 3 foam tomahawk
This foam tomahawk is a recreation of the weapon used by Connor in Assassin’s Creed 3. It’s 500mm by 225mm, nearly, and made from PU Latex with a fiberglass insert. Is this good enough for LARPing?

Is the OMG-AR15 Unicorn best zombie killing weapon yet?
The OMG-AR15 Unicorn is a modified gun. In fact, it’s a CA-legal Smith & Wesson M&P15, 6-position stock, chambering in .223/5.56 tri-colour dot scope. It also has a rechargeable 18v chain saw and fast-swap bayonet mount. We can thank the team at Guns & Gardens for the device. I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking […]
Zombie killing weapon-gun of doom
Okay, it’s not called the “weapon-gun of doom” as the official name for this weapon is the “Zombie-X exterminator”. Obviously. What do you think about the chainsaw attachement? Is that really going to cut it? Excuse the pun. Here’s another thought; do you want simple and re-usable weapons for the zombie apocalypse or do we […]
Don’t show the players: Archers are fast
Did someone tell you that the problem with archers is that they’re a bit slow? Do you have game mechanics that insist you’ll spend one round firing an arrow and another around knocking the next one? That sounds familiar to me. This looks like a video that your GM didn’t want you to see. Russian […]
Warning! Let this video caution all weapon collectors
If you’re lucky enough to have a cool looking rifle with bayonet then do use Skype to show it off to friends. You won’t be bothered by the police. That said; if you do have a rifle with bayonet then be careful with it or you might cost yourself $3,400 in unexpected expenses. Watch this […]
