3D Fan Art

I was bumbling across the internet and tripped upon some rather fantastic 3D model fan art.

Here are some of my favourites I found on CG Society's forums.


Now imagine him with Tim Allen's voice. Fabulous.

Humble Bundle


This awesome Indie Package could be considered old news in the gaming world at this point, but these awesome kids pumped it up over level 9000 by sweetening the deal to help bump up donations.

For those who have no idea what I am talking about, the Humble Bundle is a package deal of five games that you get to pick the amount paid for. The current round is actually the second campaign these guys have set up, and they've now added another six games (from the original bundle) to the deal as long as you donate at least 7.40$ to the cause.

Happy Holidays

These packages make the Grinch look like an amateur.

Confessions of a Modern Day Scrooge


Tis' the season to be Jolly, and all that rubbish.

As anyone who speaks with me on the topic for more than Sixty seconds would know, I'm not exactly the biggest fan of the holiday season.

This may or may not be affected by my current occupation that forces glitter and fake cinnamon scents upon any in a 2 mile radius.

On the other hand, I am a huge fan of Winter. It's such a crisp season. The contrast of a barren tree against an overcast sky after a fresh snowfall; the first flurries of the season dusting full pines twinkling with cheesy string lights; smashing a snowball smack dab in the middle of a younger sibling's face.

Microsoft launched a new programme mimicking the Frequent Fliers model of 'you were going to do it anyway, here's a cookie' member rewards.
