Well we already have a radical face inspired creations thread, so I just thought one for non radical face inspired creations might be okay too. Although I did make this while listening to all of my radical face collection on shuffle. It's funny how shuffle has the capacity to play the same songs on repeat. Anyway, I like to animate, but I haven't done it in a while. I spent a lot of today on these three seconds of movement: http://www.truploader.com/view/679172 What kind of arty stuff do you guys like to do?
yes) I've tried to do about ten thousand different things, such as pictures, tunes, videos, 3D models, maybe something else that i can't remember... So i'll post here one thing I made of my cat http://i46.tinypic.com/dzyxc8.jpg
I came across these brilliant wood carvings today (some are NSFW): http://imgur.com/a/E3K8G Really amazing stuff.
Your animation reminded me an old website where we can do our own animations, frame by frame: http://www.benettonplay.com/toys/flipbookdeluxe/guest.php I think it's a funny pastime, I had nothing to do so I did one a few minutes ago: http://www.benettonplay.com/toys/flipbookdeluxe/player.php?id=393338 Share yours !
Quasar, that picture of your cat made me laugh. And those wood carvings are pretty amazing. I made one too http://www.benettonplay.com/toys/flipbookdeluxe/player.php?id=393494
Yeah I saw them on the reddit front page and then was surprised to see you had posted the same link here. It is a good place to kill time aimlessly on the internet.
Yeah, that's my "it's 4am and I should be in bed but instead I'm looking at funny pictures of cats and reading interesting news articles" website.
Lonesome George, the last remaining tortoise of his kind and a conservation icon, died on Sunday of unknown causes, the Galapagos National Park said. He was thought to be about 100 years old. Lonesome George was found in 1972 and had become a symbol of Ecuadors Galapagos Islands, which attracted some 180,000 visitors last year. 'This morning the park ranger in charge of looking after the tortoises found Lonesome George, his body was motionless,' the head of the Galapagos National Park, Edwin Naula, told Reuters. 'His life cycle came to an end.' George was believed to be around 100 years old and the last member of a species of giant tortoise from La Pinta, one of the smallest islands in the Galapagos, the Galapagos National Park said. The giant Galapagos tortoises, which can live up to 200 years old, were among the species that helped Charles Darwin formulate his theory of evolution in the 19th century. The Galapagos National Park is considering embalming Georges body so that it can be displayed in the park, Naula said. A spokesperson said the park plans to carry out a necropsy to determine what may have killed the tortoise. Scientists had been trying to get George to mate since 1993, when they introduced two female tortoises of a different subspecies into his pen. They laid eggs twice, but they were infertile. The pen where George lived was visited by thousands of tourists every year, who often had to scramble with each other to take pictures of one of the rarest creatures on Earth. The islands often attract celebrities, including Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt earlier this year. Tortoises were hunted for their meat by sailors and fishermen to the point of extinction, while their habitat has been eaten away by goats introduced from the mainland. Some 20,000 giant tortoises still live on the Galapagos.
