We are not alone! There is little doubt that this is the work of intelligent life, (from far, far away.)

Mule Deer Skull and Flowers

August 13th, 2008

Skull and Flowers
Staring at a blank canvas, you may imagine many things, but not as much as a girl named Georgia! Staring at some animal bones to paint, she looks back at the canvas. It’s not blank anymore.

What does she see? A sun-bleached animal skull? Some flowers? Maybe an angry mule deer skull and some flowers floating in the sky over a fire red desert? She could look at nature and see stuff you just wouldn’t believe! I looked at the canvas and saw opportunity. This forgery of Georgia O’Keeffe’s Mule Deer Skull and Flowers was good enough to fool art experts and sell at auction for $2.1 million. But that doesn’t happen for another 30 years or so. Don’t tell anybody, ok?

There are close-up detail shots after the cut. Read the rest of this entry »

Homemade Clone Helmet

August 13th, 2008

Red Clone Helmet 1
I know what you’re thinking: “What a clever duct tape replica of an Episode 2 red clone trooper helmet!” That is what it looks like, but really I was more inspired by my dad’s old Mandalorian helmet from his days as a training sergeant during the Clone Wars. Now you’re probably thinking, “Wow, how awesome would it be to have a Mandalorian soldier for a father?!” Well, it is pretty awesome, but it’s also pretty cool having an escaped genetically-enhanced ex-government assassin for a mom. Sure, growing up in the post-apocalyptic Pacific Northwest was hard, but we were happy.

Ark Raiders Experiment

August 8th, 2008

I made this movie like a hundred years ago when I was 7, which is kind of amazing when you consider that Legos weren’t even invented yet. I had to make these Legos myself. So, I guess it was really me who invented Legos. Somebody owes me a lot of money! I bet George Lucas got the idea for Raiders of the Lost Ark from seeing this, too. (The music wasn’t my first choice, but the Raiders theme music wasn’t written back then.)
