Mike Wrobel – Game of Thrones 80/90s

by Fontastiko

Da bravo addicted quale sono, non potevo lasciarmi sfuggire “Game of Thrones 80/90s”: la coloratissima rivisitazione, in chiave ultra pop, dei personaggi partoriti dalla mente di George R.R. Martin per “Le Cronache del ghiaccio e del fuoco” e illustrati con i coglioni di granito dal graphic designer francese Mike Wrobel.

A differenza di molti altri set sulla serie, quello di questo nantais trapiantato in giappone – a capo del Moshi Studio – ha il pregio di riuscire meglio di altri a traslare fino ai giorni nostri l’essenza di ogni personaggio mantenendone invariato il carattere.

Così, da quel rotto in culo di Joffrey fino a quello psicopatico di Ramsay, tutto fila come da copione, compreso ovviamente Theo e il suo hot dog e Bran con la canotta di Xavier.
Un lavoro che oltre a valere a Mike migliaia di follower, e chilate di denari sul suo profilo di Society6, ha regalato a un ingrifato come me un cazzo duro in acciaio di Valyria che nemmeno la Montagna riuscirebbe a scalfire.

18 Revealing Before-And-After VFX Shots From Your Favorite Movies And TV Series

now I am sad!

We all know that movie and TV producers use VFX (short for visual effects), but you’ll be surprised to learn just how extensively they’re used to create movie magic! These photos reveal just how much your favorite shows and movies rely on the magic of VFX.

Green-screens aren’t always green – they are also often blue, but they can technically be of any color, as long as this color is not being worn by any of the actors. When these scenes are recorded, the green-screen color is digitally selected and made transparent by special software. If the color selected was one also being worn by the actors, they would appear to have had holes punched right through them!

L’Italia porta la televisione amatoriale sulla Stazione Spaziale


Gli astronauti sulla Stazione Spaziale Internazionale adesso possono comunicare con le persone a terra, grazie anche al contributo italiano, tramite video, usando dei semplici trasmettitori. Il sistema "Ham TV" è stato installato nel laboratorio Columbus dell'ESA ed è già utilizzato per parlare con il Controllo di terra.

Voyager's Neptune

Voyager's Neptune
Cruising through the outer solar system, the Voyager 2 spacecraft made its closest approach to Neptune on August 25, 1989, the only spacecraft to visit the most distant gas giant. Based on the images recorded during its close encounter and in the following days, this inspired composited scene covers the dim outer planet, largest moon Triton, and faint system of rings. From just beyond Neptune's orbit, the interplanetary perspective looks back toward the Sun, capturing the planet and Triton as thin sunlit crescents. Cirrus clouds and a dark band circle Neptune's south polar region, with a cloudy vortex above the pole itself. Parts of the very faint ring system along with the three bright ring arcs were first imaged by Voyager during the fly-by, though the faintest segments are modeled in this composited picture. Spanning 7.5 degrees, the background starfield is composed from sky survey data centered on the constellation Camelopardalis, corresponding to the outbound Voyager's view of the magnificent Neptunian system.

Richard J. Evans - 8-bit Ghibli

In occasione dell’uscita di “The Wind Rises”, l’ultimo lungometraggio animato di Hayao Miyazaki, il digital e graphic designer inglese Richard J. Evans ha voluto rendere omaggio al leggendario Studio Ghibli ricreando alcuni dei suoi personaggio più famosi in pixel art. Tutta la magia di uno degli studi e “animatori” più visionari e poetici di sempre raccolti in appena 8 bit.

Jack-of-all-trades artist and designer Chris McVeigh creates these awesome minimalist Lego models of outmoded technology including TVs, video game consoles, as well as analog phones and cameras. Not only does he design and photograph them, but also makes them available as sets you can buy in his shop, or as instructions you can download freely on his site. He also turns many of his LEGO-themed illustrations and photos into prints which you can find on Society6. (via Stellar)

Souls

by Wes + Tony

‘’Hey devil, my soul keeps leaving me weird voicemails.’’

How are you supposed to sell your soul?! Everyone makes it look so easy in cartoons, movies, and ancient religious tomes, but in my experience it’s nearly impossible. Here I am with a perfectly decent soul and it’s been a real problem finding a buyer. Apparently the usual way is to say aloud, “I’d sell my soul for a fighter jet!” but that’s not doing it. When you type “soul” into Amazon or eBay you just get a bunch of vinyl records, which is cool and all but I don’t have the musical talent or recording studio access to put my soul onto a 12-track album. Does Satan have a phone number or at least an email address? If he does I bet he uses AOL.

My guess is that the ol’ Dark Lord isn’t buying anymore. He was probably speculating that the price of souls was going to skyrocket when humankind drove itself into extinction from inventing fire and drinking too much mead, but now that we’ve invented BIGGER fires and BETTER mead we’re still going 7 billion strong. Better luck next time, Mr. Devil, I guess that’s why you’re president of the shittier afterlife!

Spica, Mars, and Eclipsed Moon

Spica, Mars, and Eclipsed Moon
A beautiful, reddened Moon slid through dark skies on April 15, completely immersed in Earth's shadow for well over an hour. It was the year's first total lunar eclipse and was widely enjoyed over the planet's Western Hemisphere. Seen from the Caribbean island of Barbados, the dimmed lunar disk is captured during totality in this colorful skyview. The dark Moon's red color contrasts nicely with bright bluish star Spica, alpha star of the constellation Virgo, posing only about two degrees away. Brighter than Spica and about 10 degrees from the Moon on the right, Mars is near opposition and closest approach to Earth. The Red Planet's own ruddy hue seems to echo the color of the eclipsed Moon.

Baby Pictures

by Wes + Tony

time makes adult babies of us all

Are babies cute? No one knows for sure! It seems a little odd that all other mammal babies are objectively cuter than human babies, which means that if anyone isn’t cute, it’s us.

It doesn’t help that human babies stay that way for such a long time. I’m pretty sure I would get sick of a puppy if it wasn’t fully grown until 16-20 years later. It probably wouldn’t improve matters if the puppy couldn’t move on its own for a year, required constant attention, and might grow up to hate you.

Basically what I’m saying is that when someone says “That human baby is so cute!” they very likely mean that it’s cuter than an adult. Also they might be an alien reptile for going out of their way to specify “human.”

Vienna-based designer Andreas Scheiger created this fun series of faux taxidermy heads using a bunch of found bicycle seats and handlebars. The pieces can serve as fun art objects, or as functional hooks for holding bags, coats, and even other bicycles. Several of them are for sale over on his website, or you can see how he did it and maybe attempt your own. (via Fubiz)

Update: Several of you have mentioned that these are pieces appear to be a modern interpretation of Picasso’s Tête de taureau.
