Now I lay me down to sleep… Just don’t accidentally hit restart!

Anybody know where we can actually get hold of a couple of these pillows?

Check out this awesomely geeky t-shirt for fans of both Doctor Who and the Grand Theft Auto series.  Mine is already ordered and you’ve only got about 13 hours left (at time of posting) to get yourself one of these t-shirts before they’re gone forever.

The perfect ring box for proposing to the Stargate fan in your life. Just make sure she’s not a Goa’uld before you pop the question.

Everyone’s favorite mechanic, Kaylee, finally gets her own t-shirt in the style of the pin-ups (but with far more clothes, her dungarees are trademark after all) they used to paint on the side of fighter aircraft.

Paper Mache “Maleficent” Dragon Trophy

Paul O'Flaherty 0

Dan (the Monster Man) Reeder was commissioned to make a Dragon trophy of “Maleficient” from Disney’s “Sleeping Beauty“. The result is the magnificent paper mache piece you see below which features glowing eyes and mouth.

 I was asked by a man who lives in France to make a dragon trophy of “Maleficent”, the dragon from Disney’s “Sleeping Beauty”.   The first photos below are what I was supposed to use as a guide.  He wanted a trophy that was as close a rendition of the cartoon as possible, including the lights.   You would think that the simple lines would make this an easy task.  But it wasn’t easy at all.  It was quite a challenge, which I relished.   I wanted to make the dragon that the cartoon would be based upon.  But I couldn’t improvise very much without straying too far from the original drawings.   And the lights were even a bigger challenge.    Obviously I couldn’t get lights that would blast out of the mouth, eyes, and nose exactly like the cartoon.   And the dragon had to look decent when the lights were turned off.
