I love when I come across great artists and there fantastic work, but I even love it more when they come recommended from a good friend and have an ambitious project in the works. Artist Patrick Carson Sparrow is one of those cases... my main man Johnny from Freddy In Space has been singing his praises for years, as most of his art is horror themed. But his recent '100 monsters in 100 days' project has really captured my attention. Sparrow just decided to do 100 sketches of his favorite monsters, creatures, and killers and post 1 a day on his Facebook page. He has been remarkably efficient (most people who do these types of challenges fall off and fall behind) and he picks some great choices... not the run of the mill choices and the proof that Sparrow is the real deal when it comes to a horror fan. You can see more of his work and all of the 100 Days of Monsters series by clicking here and going to his Facebook page, you can buy some cool shit at his Etsy shop by clicking here, and you can see my faves of the collection after the jump...

Adventure Times Mash-ups by Mike Vazquez
Being that I am catching up on my back episodes of Adventure Time (pretty much the best cartoon created in the last 10 years), I am obsessed with Jake, Finn and everybody else on the show. But when I saw them cast in some of my other favorite pop culture properties like The Walking Dead and Star Wars in the mashup art of Mike Vazquez, I knew I just had to post about it. You can grab each of them over at Vazquez's Etsy shop for about 20 bucks a pop, and you can see much more of Vazquez's other awesome art over at his blog. Check out the two Star Wars mash-ups and the Walking Dead one as well after the jump....

80s Movies/Video Game Mashups by Joshua Gilbert
I love me some mash-ups, especially if they involve some of my favorite 80's movies. Artist Joshua Gilbert has plenty of talent for making some killer movie posters (he has some great stuff for sale on Etsy by clicking here), but he knocked out two mash-ups that take the cake. How about a Labyrinth/Pac-Man mash-up that features and awesome grid like board with Jareth holding the baby Toby hostage in the middle. Think that is the coolest it could get? How about Dark Crystal Donkey Kong? Skeksi Kong... are you fucking kidding me? These are two fantastic pieces that need to be shared with my fellow 80s babies. Check out more of Gilbert's art over at his Deviant Art page, buy some of his work on Etsy, and you can check out the Labyrinth and Dark Crystal pieces after the jump...

Homemade Geek Bikinis? Yes Please... BOING!!!!
Etsy is a wonderful website that allows creative people to peddle their wares. There are some really creative things up for sale on there, especially for geeks like me. Tons of custom made products have you debating for hours on which things you can afford to buy and clutter your house with. But every once in a blue I come across something that is just so amazing that I have to share. This particular product is fantastic... or should I say ASSTASTIC! Lisa Galetto runs Fit 2 B Tied clothing, which specializes in custom swimwear, dancewear, and stripperwear (I swear she has that on the header of the shop... I did not make that up). Lisa has a ton of sexy bathing suits for sale, but one set draws geek ire and that is because she is using some iconic geek imagery... even if it is a small amount due to the lack of fabric in these suits! It also seems like Lisa is the model for the suits, and boy is she easy to look at. She also seems to be really hot all the time, because she is always pulling her bikini bottoms down. Poor girl. She is very talented super sexy and the suits are dope. Share these with the nerd girls in your life!!!! You can buy things at Lisa's Etsy shop by clicking here, and see the geek bikinis after the jump...

A Human Centipede To Keep You Warm
My Mother has been on my case for my entire life to put a scarf on when I go outside. I never do. I hate the way they feel, and I hate the way the look. But perhaps there is hope... What better way to keep my pale little neck warm than with an image of numerous people surgically attached ass to mouth?

Charlie Skywalker, Fighter Pilot
Check out this very cool sculpture by artist Tom Torrey of Charlie Brown as Luke Skywalker in his X Wing fighter pilot suit. Pretty cool, no? Ya gotta love Snoopy as R2-D2 as well. This sculpture was a personal gift for a friend, but Torrey has an ETSY store where you can buy some of his art. Very cool stuff as well. Enjoy.
Thanks to Great White Snark for another wonderful find!

If I Were A Bit Younger, I Would Rock One Of These
These are the kind of ski masks that I wish were available when I was a kid... nothing keeps your face warmer then a full on ski mask, so why not look awesome while staying warm as well? First up, we got a Ghostbuster's themed Stay Puft Marshmallow Man ski mask. Take a look at this magnificient bastard:
You can order that for about 20 bucks over at 80's Tees by clicking here.
Next up, we got a much more sophisticated, knitted version of the ski mask featuring the Great Old One Chtlulu from the tales of HP Lovecraft. Good lord this is acurate (and spooky as shit). Imagine walking down the street wearing this thing.... wow!
You can grab that mask for 20 bucks by checking out Crafty PA's Etsy shop by clicking here.

And Now For Our Next Number, Live From Jabba's Lair, It's The Max Rebo Band!!!
Artist Dave Perillo has got a treat for all you real Star Wars heads out there... The most popular band on Tatooine, Perillo brings you the cover art for The Max Rebo Band Live From Jabba's Throne Room!!!! Check out what the artist had to say about the piece on his blog:
The hit song by the hottest thing on Tatooine since the Sarlacc Pit ate chili...the Max Rebo Band!!! Apparently, the words "Lapti Nek" mean "Work it Out" in Huttesse. Too bad they replaced with "Jedi Rocks" in the Special Edition!
This my "Jim Flora" jazz album inspired tribute to band that died way too soon in that horrible Jabba Skiff explosion...let's hope they keep on Lapti Nek'ing in the afterlife...
Here it is... Enjoy!!! You can buy Dave Perillo prints at his Etsy store by clicking here.
