This character concept by Gaius31duke really caught my I eye.  Really liking the looseness and use of eraser in these.

I just rediscovered the video to I Feel Better by music group Hot Chip.  Things like this are what keep me motivated to make more art.  These guys make a bunch of great videos.  Enjoy!

Monster Brains recently posted some interesting work by Guillaume Boissinot.

DEFEND THE CITY is a big fan of propaganda posters in general, but these posters by Dane Ault were an especially nice find: RESIST Alliance SW and Vader ENLIST. The Star Wars propaganda subject is indeed rich.  Check out more of Dane Ault’s work on deviantART and on his website Monkey Minion Press.

I just ran across the work of the group Toba Toba on Design You Trust.  The piece above is from their installation work. Toba Toba was formed by Amelia Eguia and Julian Mantel, from Buenos Aires, Argentina.  Enjoy!

We are big fans of designer toys here at DEFEND THE CITY.  This Jamungo K11 set caught my eye on the Tenacious Toys Blog.

This popped up on Monster Brains and wow… The Diary of an Inhuman Species is fantastic.

If you find yourself outside Heart City, you may come across a Glump wandering the countryside. Politely wave and say hi, they are friendly and non-dangerous.  Don’t expect too much interaction from a Glump, though.  The are generally gloomy in disposition and move slowly.

And, be careful not to offend a Glump by confusing them with a Slump.
