通りすがり

I saw my first Masquerade at Penguicon 1.0, in April 2003. I decided that that looked like fun, and I wanted to do something like it. I’d idly pondered a TRON costume in the past, and this seemed like the perfect venue for it, being a cross between a Linux and SF con.

I saw lots of TRON costumes on the net, and wasn’t satisfied with any of them. The biggest deficiency was that none of them attempted to capture the green tint of the characters’ outfits in the computer world. Yes, I know that was added in the digital animation process, but, still, a white costume just doesn’t look right. Many of them also used black for the circuit patterns, one more step away from the costumes the viewer saw in the movie.

Three Transformers fans in China have taken three months to build their own robot out of a Citroen C2 car.

Sui Lulu, Zhang Yiming and Li Wei, from Nanjing city, have named the 15ft Transformer X2, reports the Jinling Evening Post.

“We are huge Transformers fans, and grew up with them on TV and in comic books. We always wanted to have our own transformer, a real one,” says graphic designer Sui Lulu.

He says they picked the Citroen C2 because it’s small: “We originally wanted to make the figure of Optimus Prime, who is transformed from a truck.

“But we calculated that the final figure would be around seven storeys high, and we couldn’t find room for it. So we went with the Citroen C2.”

最初はトラックから Optimus Prime を作りたかったが、巨大になりすぎるため Citoroen C2 に変更したとのこと。

When the Belgian 501st Legion FanWars Garrison first suggested that one of its members, Benoît Lambert, create a Death Star-shaped PVC helium balloon, he was not only thrilled but already envisioning a chance to show off his artistic talents as well as his love for Star Wars–and his skills as a hot-air balloonist.
