YouTube user fashions Halo 1 pistol out of wood
Have you guys all seen the YouTube video of the kid who made ridiculous amounts of Halo weapons out of cardboard? Well, this is the same thing, but a bit more extreme.
Showcased in the above video is a YouTube user by the name of Gradun66 who has made an exact replica of the pistol featured in Halo 1. It has a functioning magazine and bolt-action. There even seems to be a Battle Rifle of the same quality he is working on in the back.
The latest Halo game, Halo 3: ODST, will hit the market exclusively for the Xbox 360 on September 22nd.
Modder turns PS3 into alien masterpeice
It seems that a tattoo and casemod artist by the name of GivinTats was displeased with the current look for the PS 3 and decided to take matters into his own hands.
What you see above is his creation; an alien touting Playstation 3 case. How did he do it?
Well, he used his artistic skills to hand mold epoxy putty into the various forms you see above. After that he covered his work in a layer of black paint and was done.
Any bets on how long it takes for this to appear on eBay?
