I've just added Kytana's prize for winning Character Contest 82 into ItemRight-Miscellaneous:
I had big plans for doing an open version, and then the open version being broken into separate top pieces and bottom pieces, but when I opened the set I realized I'm almost out of room in it. So I had to go with just the closed iteration you see here.

AMS requested some Kirby-like energy effects for the hands, as seen in the recent "Gunner" sketch I did, for his Character Contest 80 prize. It is now available in the "ItemRight-Energy" set in two flavors, one with a clear central area and one with a filled central area. I also dropped in some new spell effect types of rings I've been meaning to add. Enjoy!
I tried to set that last one up so it's kind of like smoke, if you ramp down the transparency and turn off the line color.

When last we left our stuffed bunny, we had decided to pick up a tire iron and, I quote, "get medieval on their asses". Meaning we wanted to walk into a mob of zombies attacking the police station and start hitting them. On purpose.
Do you have any idea how hard it is to get zombie guts out of velveteen fur?!
Regardless, the die is cast and here are the results:

Today I am outsourcing "Bad Super Costume Wednesday" to our friends at UGO. Specifically, for this guy:
K. Thor Jensen's writeup pretty much says it all:
Adam X The X-Treme may be the most 90s superhero ever. His name even has "Extreme" in it, for God's sake. Check it off the list: backwards baseball cap? Goatee? Mullet? Mullet and what I guess are supposed to be dreadlocks but look more like pigtails? Spikes and sharp things everywhere? This guy probably got his powers from taking a bath in radioactive Mountain Dew.
Aside from pouches and the singular achievement of killing off comics for a decade, I think the greatest Image legacy is making pigtails on super-heroes normal. That's just so sweet.

If you've been enjoying the "Zombocalypse Now" adventures, author Matt Youngmark's latest adult "Chooseomatic" adventure features super-heroes and the awesome title "Thrusts of Justice"! Today's the release date and they're trying to bomb the Amazon store with orders, so if you're considering a purchase, this is the time to do it.
Here's a quick overview of the book:
You're just an unemployed reporter until a cryptic warning and an explosion outside your favorite bar send you down the road to becoming one of three superpowered heroes (or, potentially, villains - we're not here to judge). Dark vigilante? Armored space cop? Wisecracking mutant? Whichever path you choose, you'd better get busy, because a mysterious plot is afoot and - like it or not - you're the only thing standing between the forces of evil and utter annihilation.
Thrusts of Justice is an action/comedy reimagining of the choose-your-own-path books you grew up with. There are 90 possible endings (81 of which result in your humiliating death).
Humiliating death, people, what could be better?! Get out there and buy yours today!

I've just updated the ShoulderRight-Standard set of items to include separate shoulder boards, chevrons, and rockers so you can do military ranks. They should all fit together so you can do multiple rockers & chevrons over a board to do various ranks.
This is the prize for Skybandit's win in the last Character Contest, by the way.

In the history of film, we have two great robot franchises to contend with. The first is the soulless living metal cyborg army of the Skynet future, Terminators rolling over the last tenuous threads of humanity. The other are the transforming alien Autobots known as the Transformers. Who would win an all-out struggle between these inorganic titans?
On the one hand you have alien technology and Optimus Prime's astounding generalship, going against a sentient AI whose best plan ultimately was to send Arnold Schwarzenegger back in time repeatedly to kill one dude. One dude!
On the other hand, the liquid metal T-2000 not only resembled a gorgeous woman (take THAT, Bumblebee!) but was able to transform itself in limited ways as well.
I admit I'm a bit stumped on this one. So I turn it over to you to debate -- cast your vote and persuade others to do the same!
