Created by artist and avid gamer Kalapusa, this life-sized Piranha Plant illustrates what life might be like if we lived in a world closer to Mario’s world.
Composed of a special mix of acrylics, clay and a strengthened wire skeleton, I wouldn’t get too close to this thing with any animals lighter than 50 lbs. It’s looking mighty hungry. This plant creeps me out sort of like how wax museums creep me out. It has that uncanny thing going on.
Wearing a tuxedo without these cuff links should be a crime. Artist Laura Swingle hand crafts these highly detailed clay Nintendo cartridges in to a variety of jewelery pieces. Laura’s Etsy shop offers a limitless supply of creativity as she is open to taking requests on turning any two games into these cuff links, so long as she can find the cover art online.
Besides the popular Mike Tyson’s Punch Out, TETRIS, Super Mario Bros 3, Paper Boy, Bubble Bobble, Zelda (gold cartridge), Dr. Mario and Metroid games we all know and love, Laura will also accept requests for Sony PlayStation games. The cuff links range from $19-$22 dollars depending on how much of a pain in the ass your order is to fulfill. So, don’t go too crazy and try to request a Lester the Unlikely pair of cuff links: it’s just not happening.
Using a little bit of clay and a whole lot of imagination, Ash Ringrose of Mr. PotatoMash has become popular molding clay into a well-made array of pop culture, movie, and cartoon characters. One of his later works is a Mr. Potato rendition of Hellboy.
In light of the upcoming release of the hero’s new movie: Hellboy II: The Golden Army we’d like to thank Ringrose for his dedication and excellent work. We can’t wait to see the upcoming Captain Picard Mr. Potato, no hair needed.
