Battling the calculating evil genius of his arch-nemesis, the Weasel, Batmole is the one true masked crusader of the underground.
By day, he’s just a simple walnut mogul, with enough horded nuts to supply his vigilante habit. By night, he’s Batmole, the Dark Rodent!
Hans Scharler created this awesome Steampunk Pumpkin using a bunch of spare parts from some of the most well known DIY providers.
The pumpkin glows an eerie green color from inside when turned on in the dark, sort of like your mom. Hit the jump for the video making of the Steampunk Pumpkin.
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.
Skulls fascinate us. Whether it be skulls made of paper to skulls made of melted cassette tapes, we can never seem to get enough. That’s why we dig Indian artist Subodh Gupta and his art, a lot of which involves recycling old pots and pans from the kitchen. For the Frieze art fair in London, he assembled a load of old kitchen utensils and forged this bodacious skull just in time for Halloween.
Look at that kid in the pic. He’s afraid to touch it. What a pansy. Man, if it’s that effective at in sighting fear in to the hearts of children, this is one decoration I could totally use for my front lawn.

Flickr user Agustina loves her felt and possibly robots. And while Felt Robots are cool, we want fire-breathing, horseback riding, begging, swimming, cooking, killer robots that come equipped with the ability to give us hand jobs.
While it might not be a traditional, metal robot, Agustina’s felt robots really reflect what DIY is all about. Sometimes you have to reinterpret traditional art on a new medium for people to really see your creativity. Enough hippie mumbo-jumbo, I’m watching “Lost in Space”.
