Beaded Game Characters [Updated]
Some make game characters more realistic by “untooning” them, I do the opposite by “beading” them… Here’s a truncated repost of a few game characters I did way back using beads as a medium. Sort of pixel art you could say.
I might just have to steal Pixeloo’s idea though and try this out for myself as well, perhaps both “untooned” and “beaded” — call it an unofficial collaboration if you will :)
God of War 3 Screenshots
After thousands of you emailed me about the suspicious reflection in the DS screen from my previous post, I’ll have to come clean… Yes, I did not only order Zelda: Phantom Hourglass from Japan. As a big fan of the God of War franchise I couldn’t resist not getting this limited edition “action figure” of Kratos, in Golden Fleece Armor even mind you!
Now the big dilemma, should I take him out of the box, or should I stay true to the Unwritten Laws of Geek and keep him in prime condition for possible future profit?
Djimon of War
So, David Jaffe wants Djimon Hounsou to play Kratos if there’s ever going to be a God of War Movie.
Now… I don’t wanna sound like a racist, but face it, Kratos is basically white as a ghost, meaning if they wanna stay true to the game they might have to cover Djimon up with some full body makeup…
Above you see a quick and dirty Photoshop of a picture I found of Djimon on the web - for a little estimation of what he might look like - but what I’m afraid it’ll be more freakish like Shawn and Marlon Wayans in White Chicks.
Do you think Djimon would make a good Kratos?
