Heartless: The Story of the Tin Man

I can’t believe I haven’t shared this with anyone yet. It’s 12:15am my time, and I’m still awake, so I must share this right now, because if I don’t I’ll just forget again. First of all, if you haven’t already seen it, you must go to Whitestone Motion Pictures‘ website, and watch the 22min short [...]

Captain America – Concept – Desktop Wallpaper

So, I was reading my Facebook account (Why do I still have that thing? Who knows… maybe just for the distant friend connections that I would not otherwise have.) and I saw a link posted by a friend of mine about the new Captain America outfit. Now, I’m not a huge comic book fanatic. However, [...]

(there are more images at the original page) From [...]

Dr. Horrible – Now in 8-bit epicness!

This is epic. If you need an example of what epic is, this is it. Take note. Write it down. Two R’s. Doctor Octoroc, someone I have never heard of, but will now pay attention to, apparently liked Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog so much that he decided to make a totally epic 8-bit version, complete [...]

Rendering Hair

Ever found that your character’s hair looks unrealistic, especially when it is supposed to be long and free-flowing (I’m lookin’ at you, Dead Space. Intro sequence = most unrealistic real time hair ever.) Finally, we can have realistic hair in real time in our games. This looks amazing! (and must totally be viewed in HD) [...]

Dune – Concept Art

One of my favorite stories, the original six Dune books by Frank Herbert, makes me wish that a;; sci-fi writing was that good.
