The artist RJ Palmer also has made his own versions of pokemon. Taking a more prehistoric approach. This is his deviantart, the other link is his personal site.

Giant pokemon drinking game that looks quite interesting
It is very detailed and large. So large that I can't fit the original size on my blog! Here you can read it. Couldn't find a source, but whoever made it is quite awesome and has my admiration.

Firefly IS awesome!
So I have heard from various geeky sources that firefly was the best show that ever existed and it's a damn shame that it never got picked up for a second season.
Example:
But I never really felt like going out and finding a way to watch it and was weary of watching a new series because series usually have a lot of episodes and I know I wouldn't be happy with not finishing it. Also what if I feel in love with the show and then was left hanging with questions that were never to be answered?
A year or so after finding out about the show, I found it on netflix. Without anything to watch, boyfriend and I decided to give it a try....AND IT WAS AWESOME!!!
The story line follows a captain and his "ragtag crew", as netflix calls it, as they find (usually illegal) jobs of scavenging cargo and then selling it on the black market. They claim that they do regular jobs too, but I don't think it ever shows any in the series.
The setting is in the year of 2517, and the planet "The-Earth-That-Was" (you may know it by it by it's current name, Earth) was used up, so they found a new solar system and terraformed the planets and moons to support human life. The group called The Alliance decided that all the new planets should be under one rule, but the group of people who didn't want that, called The Independents or "Brown Coats", fought back causing a war. The first episode starts with the war, introducing the captain and a woman of his later to be formed crew. Most of the series takes place about 7 years after the wars, excluding some flash backs and the like. The alliance won, and now the central planets are the more rich and technologically advanced, and leave the outer planets with not so much technology or money.
It has the perfect level of humor, and the right type! I loved all of the characters and was so interested in the story line They could have had an episode about filing taxes and I would have loved it! Of course it would most likely be perfectly dramatic and dangerous taxes that would reveal a little more about the characters. Basically they had some lovely ingredients that they mixed together and baked into a wonderful show.
Thankfully, a few years after the end of Firefly(2002), they made a follow up movie called Serenity(2005). It wrapped things up to a satisfactory level for me. I very much recommend this series!

Tim Burton style pokeymans!
The amazing artist hatboy has made a lot of the pokemon into a tim burton type of style! These pictures are so amazing. Here are some of my favorites:
Bulbasaur has always been my favorite :3
Truthfully I have never own a pokemon game :'( I have played a bit on other people's games and my boyfriend has multipple games for ds but you cannot have more than one account on there. I did watch the show A LOT with the first 151 pokemon. I know all of those but am pretty clueless with the 50 bazillion other ones.
So yeah, here's the pokemon specific link. He seems to be putting color in the newer one's he's made.

Headcrab Fail.
Was making an awesome mask of headcrabby papercraft goodness, as seen here:
But I have had a derpy hooves moment of "I just don't know what went wrong"
Update! 10/13/12
| The awesome guy who made the papercraft |
Now that I'm at the final part of finishing it, stuff doesn't match up :( I actually had a dream last night that I found a piece that I hadn't cut out that fixed everything! sadly only the glue on fangs are left. I'm just going to glue stuff to other stuff and try to make it whole. I shall update if it gets any better.
Update! 10/13/12
I painted on a shirt in acrylic. Surprisingly this shirt used to be dark blue. I needed a white-ish but didn't have one but did have some bleach. This picture makes it look like my arm is double jointed.
Then I went to HEB and bought all the fake blood they had (5 tubes). In retrospect, I could have probably done better trying to make my own. I haven't done that before so it kind of slipped my mind that that's an option.
Rawr! Headcrab Zombie! Didn't think of the different lengths of the 2 shirts until it was too late D:

Look at me! I can paint!
So, I love the legend of zelda and like to collect all the related paraphernalia. Sadly, this can start costing more that I can afford, so I need to get creative sometimes. These are some really cheap ass shoes, with some cheap ass paints, painted with some very cheap ass paint brushes.
They aren't completely finished and I need to touch up on somethings very badly. Like the horror that is adult link's face. They may be as finished as they will get though. I have become lazy towards them.
