Unless it’s properly prepared, I find that Hutt is tough with a gamey taste. Generally it’s not the most appetizing option on the menu. But deviantART member KatesKakes’s version promises to be sweet and moist.
Why don’t Daleks on Doctor Who get cutie marks? There have to be different ways of exterminating life, and therefore different ways to earn them. This should be explored in a crossover episode.

Christopher Lloyd was a great Doc Brown, but I can’t see him as the Doctor. Yet deviantART user Ratgirlstudios’s re-imagining of a Back to the Future Part II poster prompts us to consider the possibility.

If Dr. Seuss had composed a cartoon version of The A-Team, the improvised combat vehicles would have been wackier. As it is, this image was created by deviantART user DrFaustusAU.

Ah, Alien vs. Predator! Perhaps the greatest of all date movies. deviantART member Joker-laugh has captured the essence of that film with this custom chess set.

The rules get a bit wibby-wobbly timey-wimey, but the basic principles of Doctor Who chess are comprehensible by humans. deviantART user Eldalin Skywalker made this set with polymer clay pieces ranging between three and seven centimeters tall. Do you agree with her character choices?

deivantART user SoDespair created a cosplay photo set that mimics the animated TV show Daria perfectly. Daria Morgendorffer, Jane Lane and her brother Trent Lane are caught in their original settings. Trent even has the correct tattoos.

Before your little tyke rolls his first insanity check, he needs to know what he’s getting into. Thankfully, Dr. Seuss (or deviantART user DrFaustusAU) made a shortened version of H.P. Lovecraft’s “The Call of Cthulhu” for younger minds.

First, there were Hipster Disney Princesses and Hipster Ipsum Lorem… now, thanks to deviantART‘s Rotae, there’s Hipster Harry Potter. Rotae says, “A friend suggested I draw hipster!Luna next… isn’t hipster!Luna also canon!Luna though?” I’d like to see Hipster Voldemort, myself. Hit the link to see Hipster versions of Ron, Hermione, Malfoy and Hagrid.

deviantART member Ray Lin composed stunningly realistic sculptures of four Futurama characters: Professor Farnsworth, Nibbler, Zoidberg, and Leela. It appears that he’s working on Zap Brannigan and Fry now. Which Futurama character would you like to see in clay?

deviantART member Mari Rosa Archambault, inspired by ukiyo-e prints, depicted Nintendo video game stars in feudal Japan. It took me a minute out to figure out that the figure on the right is Mega Man. Link -via Uniblog
deviantART member ddi7i4d made this marvelous hand-cranked paper machine simulating that great apparition in the sky, Nyan Cat. At the link, you can find a template. Just print it on card stock, paste it together, and turn. Link -via Blame It on the Voices
Before I left my day job, I had plenty of “I quit” fantasies. Mostly, they involved walking away from an explosion a la every major action star ever, but I can’t say at any point I imagined being a robot. But that’s what’s happening here and in a new series of videos by deviantART:
Have you ever wanted to quit work because your boss is a jerk or because you wanted to dedicate your time to something you’re truly passionate about? That’s the inspiration behind our newest project.
DeviantART has teamed up with a stellar production crew, some very talented actors, and some awesome deviants to create a series of short videos that we all wish could happen IRL. Watch above as our overworked, underpaid, and unappreciated employees quit work and show their bosses who they really are!
THere are also “Be a Panda” and “Be a Wizard” videos up, and t-shirts to boot.
deviantART user Tommervik paints in a style somewhat similar to Pablo Picasso or Marcel Duchamp. The results are quite striking, particularly in his series of Star Wars-themed works. Skeletor, Batman, and Spock are also featured in his gallery. Star Wars Images and General Gallery -via The Mary Sue
deviantART user shanti1971 made this piece entitled “The End of the Revolution”. That’s a poppy sticking out of the end of the barrel. The poppy is a traditional symbol of remembrance for the war dead, especially those of World War I, in the UK and much of the Commonwealth.

Well, sure. But are those the correct model blasters?
This image was taken by deviantART user glittersweet, a textile artist in New Zealand.
This is pretty amazing. Katie Alves recreates movie scenes on the eyelids of models, such as the above presentation of The Nightmare before Christmas. Other featured films include The Lion King, Aladdin, and Alice in Wonderland.

This would, in all actuality, be a great movie. Or at least a short film. The pairing of Wolverine and Animal is good, but Beaker is automatically funny in all things.
deviantART user Rahzzah made this image to mark the 21st anniversary of the passing of Jim Henson.

deviantART user Samuel Lee made this dandy leather hat and decorated it with a classic maritime motif. It’s not a treasure map. At least, Lee doesn’t say that it’s a treasure map. Maybe there’s a code worked into it somehow….

This image made me laugh the moment that I saw it. deviantART user Hillary White’s gallery is filled with all sorts of hilarious juxtapositions, like Voltron dancing in a Monet painting and Brainy Smurf getting assassinated during the French Revolution.

deviantART user dkart71 doesn’t offer a lot of verbal detail about this work, but his level of artistic detail is impressive. His gallery is filled with similar pieces, including choppers and trikes.
deviantART user ComputerSherpa created a periodic table as a means of organizing the major tropes that can be found in popular stories. Pictured above is one small selection. When ComputerSherpa offered this to his classmates for critique, one cleverly suggested that it be used as a dartboard.

deviantART user SharpWriter is fond of depicting scenes from American history, such as Abraham Lincoln riding a grizzly bear while wielding a M-16 and the Emancipation Proclamation. That’s January 1, 1863, just in case you are curious. One of his more recent works is this image from Teddy Roosevelt’s first full term in office. You know — when he killed Bigfoot. One nitpick: in the actual historical event, Roosevelt used a Krag-Jørgensen.

About this image by deviantART user asaifactory, Jeremy Barker writes:
This is just like my Classics classes with one crucial difference: nobody is naked. And for that I an eternally grateful.
I get his point, but I think that a recreation of the Star Wars story in the form of ancient Greek pottery paintings would be fascinating.

deviantART user Sumerset envisions grand alliances in the Star Trek and Doctor Who universes. Leaving aside the depiction of late 24th Century Romulans and Klingons fighting alongside each other…well, they did briefly during the Dominion War, I suppose. But shouldn’t all sides within each universe ally against the opposing universe?
I mean, if I saw even the Jem’Hadar fighting the Doctor, I’d support the Jem’Hadar. It’s like that old proverb says: “My brother and I against my cousin. My cousin and I against any stranger.” Are you a Trekkie or a Whovian? Choose your side and stick with it.
Your cat doesn’t have a helmet? Why not? deviantART user Diarment made one for his cat Hugo. It’s reminiscent of Princess Leia’s slave girl costume, if Leia had been a cat.

deviantART user Pe-u offers this take on Sandro Botticelli’s The Birth of Venus. One commenter speculates that the matron at the right is Captain Marvel, but I’m inclined to think that it’s supposed to be Superman.

deviantART user ~viridis-somnio created a lipstick arrangement that makes a mouth look like the Pokémon Pikachu. She writes:
This is a bonus Animal-ipstick I did for a photo assignment. It’s Pikachu! Everyone in class loooved this one. My final project was a total of 20 photos of anything I wanted. Mine is sort of a typology, but the only consistent element are my lips.
Buy this and brag to your hunting buddies about it. deviantART user Melita Curphy made this rug that looks like a skinned supernatural creature.
