Catches tigers in red weather.

× Postcrossing is a very awesome project brought to my attention by michachan. From the site:

The goal of this project is to allow people to receive postcards from all over the world, for free. Well, almost free! The main idea is that: if you send a postcard, you will receive at least one back from a random Postcrosser from somewhere in the world.

I haven't had a chance to sign up yet, but I'm so looking forward to it. ♥

× Japanese kick boxer Yuichiro "Jienotsu" Nagashima cosplays as female characters in the ring, kicks ass while doing so. In a recent bout he skipped his usual Touhou Project outfits and came out dressed as Sachiel, an angel from Neon Genesis Evangelion, while his ringside entourage cheered him on dressed in plug suits. Not gonna lie, I would love to see one of his matches in person.

× Video: Zelda on Paper is a stop-animation of short Zelda clips using construction paper. The animation is very (very) simplistic, but its still pretty funny.

× This article on Instructables shows you how to make a shock-resistant camera case out of that squishy shelf liner stuff. I think the end result is pretty cool looking.

× Cutest Chun Li cosplay ever.

× New species discovered in the deep sea. Hilariously, at least half of them sorta resemble sex toys.

× A favela in Rio is turned into a rainbow-hued fantasy world by Dutch artists. Absolutely gorgeous.

× I've probably linked to this before, but I'm sharing it again since I think its amazing. Handmade Loco Roco plushies!

× Video: The creation of a 4-foot tall papercraft Gundam in under 4 minutes. I got worn out building a small Solid Snake in a box, so I admire this person's dedication.

× These toys by Bandai transform from kanji into the animals they represent. "The shape-shifting critters, called Mojibakeru (moji means “character” and bakeru means “to change”), come in six varieties — 犬 (dog), 虎 (tiger), 魚 (fish), 馬 (horse), 鳥 (bird) and 竜 (dragon)." Neat. And they only cost $1!

× 25 best cameos in video games. I had so many "Ah! I remember that!" moments while reading through the list.

× The real people behind famous fictional characters is an interesting and very fascinating read.

× I want these Okami and Okamiden sculptures! They are stunning.

× This article showing the best and worst of Paris Couture week is amazing omg. I'm absolutely in love with John Galliano's flower inspired designs for Dior. If only those sorts of clothing could be pulled off in real life! Elie Saab's eveningwear is also very beautiful.

× Jesus makes an appearance in Portuguese Playboy (NSFW), looks completely bored while doing so. Cue very inappropriate loling from me. Shortly afterward, Portuguese Playboy was killed off.
