Yeah, for some reason fire and squid seem to be a running theme today. Dunno.

Anyway, Nemomatic is the site by Nemo Gould (who is secretly also Moriarty Gould as I have learned--mooha) where he recycles bits into robots that can actually light and move and whatnot. The squid you see here is just the tip of the iceberg, go to his website to see a crapload more plus videos of them in action. Awesome.

Screenprinting for Dummies

I'm always impressed when somebody can get something down to the level where even I can stroke my chin and muse, "Hey, I could do that." Next thing I know there's another todo on my list and I'm doomed. This is the trap I encountered over at the most excellent No Media Kings, where they present a tutorial on how to screenprint your own shirts, crafted by artist Shannon Gerard. Bonus points for working in Spidey and the Virgin Mary, something we haven't seen since that Marvel Team-Up special. You know the one.

Leather Cthulhu

Definitely not something you see everyday: a Cthulhu leather mask, wings, and claws! For those of you with a thing for non-Euclidean domination that will drive you mad, I guess you should rejoice.

For the rest of us, we can just dig on the dude's leather dragon bag. It went for over a thousand bucks on eBay. De-amn.

Dylan Meconis has Simpsonified the cast of the Battlestar Galactica remake.

Check out all the pics here.

Um, I don't watch the series, so I have no idea if there are spoilers in these or not. Hrm.

Blue lion

I know it's just past tax time but Cartoon Network is giving you the opportunity to grab some art in a silent auction. Yes, you could own a work of art created by Stephen Hillenberg (SpongeBob Squarepants), Craig McCracken (PowerPuff Girls, Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends), Genndy Tartakovsky (Dexter's Laboratory, Samurai Jack, Star Wars: The Clone Wars), Butch Hartman (Fairly Odd Parents) and other too numerous to mention.

All proceeds are going to help young Fyn Jules Corcoran Stec who is suffering from hepatoblastoma, a form of liver cancer. If you want more information or want to donate, visit his blog.
