The download page is over HERE! Four new full color pages ready! (even though there are like 5 color really…) And with that the pages from the first movie (at least the ones you can see along the film) are complete. I made the ink on the pages all brown since that is more or less the color one can see in the movie. Either faded blood or maybe some very old ink that has lost its full black tint. Whatever the case, this should look decent once printed over already aged paper with normal liquid ink, or maybe laser print and aging later. I will make a couple tests this week and adjust the colors if necessary later for the REAL final downloadable version. Next week we start with the pages with red ink from the second movie! The download page is over HERE!
Evil Dead necronomicon full color pages
The “Colorama Project” has begun! I’ve started making full color version of all the pages I have from the classic Evil Dead Necronomicon. I already had several of the pages, but they were quite disordered, also, If there were 2 versions of the same page (for example one version from the first movie, and another from Evil Dead 2) I just kept the most clear, now I´m making ALL the pages from all the versions, so you can make thicker books of just have a more complete collection of pages. the first pages are up and I will be uploading new pages every week (I hope along with more pages from the Deus Tenebris). If you want see all the pages (created up until now) and get them as PNG images, you can download them from google drive on the following link: Get the pages from google drive!
Lovecraftian mechanical keyboard
This year I spent quite a lot of time making videogames so I decided to get a better tool for my work. Here is a video of my first attempt at very light keyboard modding.
Making the Book of Chaos from Lego Nexo Knights
Today I continue my Lego misadventures and make a realistic version of the The Book of Chaos from Lego Nexo Knights. This time I smoked my kitchen with a lot of burnt plastic smoke…
Making the Book of Monsters from Lego Nexo Knights

Creepy Christmas 2019
It’s time for creepy christmas once again! As we do every year, we choose some creepy or non-christmasy theme to celebrate the holidays. This year we didn’t have any good ideas but we had a LOT of skeletos and skulls left over from halloween so we just gathered all of them and put them on top of a VERY cheap tree… This is our 2 dollar tree (painted black ofcourse…) It was falling apart… obviously… so we added a bit of tape… And covered the broken parts with some fabric. We thought of using a skull as the star on top of the tree: And we wanted to add some lights to it’s eyes for extra creepyness… Later we thought it might look better with a golden skull instead… It looked a bit too clean so we added a bit of watered down acrylic paint so it would add details… Test the lights… Add some tiny skeletons all over… DONE!
The Book of the Dead from The Mummy, final video
The Book of the Dead from the Mummy is ready! and here is a video summary of the project! There were MANY mistakes, but it’s done. The whole project took arround 3 weeks since we work on our off time but editing the video took many months since I wasn’t sure what exactly to show and what to take out… In any case, here it is:
The Mummy project (part 8) assembling the pages and final aging
This is the the last important step, adding the pages. Since we couldn’t find any reference of a working functional book of the dead, we had to be creative. Each one of our drop-shaped wooden parts has a strip of leather going around it and that holds a page from both sides. We used superglue and a couple of tiny nails to secure each page: Here is a couple detail photos: Once all pages are ready we starded ading all the pieces on the spine of the book. We just applied the same Bitumen of Judea that was used to age the cover decorations: First apply the bitumen then remove a little bit so that all the grooves stay dark: And now the spine is ready! And the pages are functional!
