OMG. You have to check out PES!
These guys do some amazing stop-action animation! Really. Some of the best I’ve seen. It’s unbelievable just how imaginative and precise they are.
I highly recommend their newest one: Western Spaghetti:

But Game Over is also really entertaining.
Thanks to FormFiftyFive for the link

Nice work guys.
Pat on the back to the New York Times Photo Desk for catching this one.
Incidentally, Iran, are you looking for more Photoshop experts? Maybe think about hiring the guy who “re-touched” Mariah Carey’s body for the latest cover of Elle.

For some reason this morning I was thinking about some of the old toys I had as a kid. Sure there were the Transformers and the Gobots. He-Man.
I think my favorites, though, were the construction toys. Of which only Leggos stood the test of time, it seems.
But does anyone else remember Capsela? or Construx?


I honestly don’t think I ever knew quite what to do with Capsela — they seemed like they would’ve been awesome things to play with if you were near a large body of water. Or you like to take a lot of baths. Neither of which applied to me. Still. Pretty cool.
But I definitely remember liking Construx. They were sort of like a modern version of an Erector Set. Without the rust. Simple, extensible. Lots of fun. Creative options galore.
And now they’re listed on eBay as ‘Vintage’. These are the problems that start occuring when one turns 30, I guess…
