Sunday Image Blizzard

Erik Johnson Illustrator said...: These coins look... familiar. The mastodon has some freaky alien eyes though.

Big image posts like this make me glad I have the new "Search by Image" feature on Google. No more, "what artist did this?" or "what cosplay character is that?" Upload the picture and save yourself the trouble of tracking down the original tumblr post!; January 27, 2013 at 7:26 PM
Kal said...: If it was a single picture I would have credited you but these sets I let go as a group. If the artist signs his work he can have the credit. I should take the time to research each pic and give full credit but it would take forever to post. When I do collections I credit the cosplayer or artist which I think is a nice compromise between artist/creator and someone like me who promotes their work by finding it cool. I would need a staff to keep up if I had to credit everything. Thankfully, Tumblr rarely gives you that information. Did you feel ripped off?; January 27, 2013 at 7:32 PM
Erik Johnson Illustrator said...: I don't need credit for sharing an image, I just do that because I enjoy it.

Though often I'll see pics on this site and want to know who did it and didn't have a practical way to look it up until now.; January 27, 2013 at 7:38 PM
Kal said...: I have to test how that works. They do that on Catfish all the time and it would be the first way to discover if the people you meet are really who they are...especially when they say they have a crush on me. It always ends up being some guy imprisoned on death row.; January 27, 2013 at 7:46 PM

Calvin's Canadian Cave Of Cool Manifesto

I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.

I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.

I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.

And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.

So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.

Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.

This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.
