*Mario voice* “Here we go!” This weeks PotW is also the design for the week-long contest I’m having. To see how you can win visit the CONTEST post. The NMKL (National Mario Kart League) design was created by Rodrigo Ferreira, which combines sports logo design with my all time favorite racing game Mario Kart ( which is also the only racing video game I like). I think the combination is perfect considering the intense competitiveness MK can bring [...]

Dear Doctor, shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? Honestly though I truly love this show. I’ve come to terms with the fact that I am serial obsessor (the first step), I have entirely too many favorite things that I can barely keep up, but ever since 9 walked out that blue box everything changed. I had an epiphany not to long before writing this post after I watched ’A Good Man Goes to War’ and [...]
You all are fully aware of how much a massive Doctor Who fan I am. I literally waited in line for over 6 hours on two separate occasions mind you for DW related events and to meet the main cast and Steven Moffat (you can read about that here and here). Where’s my (#DWlineCon peeps at?!). That’s some serious obsession right there! My Facebook page and Twitter is practically a continuous love letter to Doctor [...]
I featured Marques Cannons Pin-Up Video Game Girls back in August 2010 before I started Picture of the Week and I knew that one day I’d have to bring them back and feature his Video Girls Series again because I loved them so much! Marques is also the first artist I interviewed for PotW and I hope to interview more of the artists I feature whenever possible. Kratos is definitely my favorite reinterpretation!
Converse Japan wanted to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the beloved and massive Super Mario Bros. franchise so they shacked up with Nintendo and birthed these nostalgic gamer kicks. The full title is a mouthful, “Super Mario Bros. x Converse Chuck Taylor All Star 25th Anniversary Collection”, or you can just call them Mario Chucks for short.
Ian Leino is the very talented graphic designer and illustrator I’m collaborating with for my 300th blog post giveaway. He made this Who’s Who shirt with all the doctors from Doctor Who squeezed in the TARDIS. He’s currently the top grossing designer on Teefury and also has several of his designs on Threadless. I own this Who’s Who shirt in which I wore to the Doctor Whocast signing at Barnes and Nobles and Matt Smith [...]
The Inspiration: I’ve decided to take my obsession to the next level my wonderful geeks. For the last few weeks I have been working on designs for my new clothing and apparel line called Geekoverse. The idea and inspiration for Geekoverse came from different people at different times. As I continued hearing similar suggestions to create some designs for apparel from different people I finally decided to listen to the universe, she tends to know [...]
This weeks PotW is just bursting with all kinds of greatness! Everyone’s favorite boy wizard (or at least mine) Harry Potter and David Bowie’s alien rocker persona Ziggy Stardust combine their lighting bolts in this stellar art. The art is inspired from David Bowie’s iconic album Aladdin Sane (see picture below). “Harry Stardust” was created by Evan Ferstenfeld & Enkel Dika. Here’s what Made with Awesome had to say about this design: “Combining everyone’s favorite lightning-faced [...]
Check out today’s (Mar. 3rd) Tee Fury Star Wars design by Steve Thomas “We Are Family”. Here’s what he had to say about the concept: “The design was inspired by the family decals you see on the rear windshield of minivans and suv’s alike. Sure there are other Star Wars decals, but from what I could find, they either have a stormtrooper helmet or Vader helmet. In mine, a few of the core characters are [...]
