R.I.P. Burner Wall 2008-06-02 17:28:29 I have to say, even though I do love ATG's wall that covered this up, I just wanna say that this wall by Probs, Bonsai, Tizer, Ebzke et al. was really great!

R.I.P wall, you will be sorely missed.Click through to End Of The Lines flickr account to see the amazing work that goes on above this wall........ Read more:Burner
Brutal New York 1965 to 1995 2008-06-02 17:11:11 This has to be one of the best photo essays I have seen in ages.

Ma.kub Chapter3 P.K.A. 2008-06-05 04:23:12 Ma.kub Chapter
3 P.K.A., originally uploaded by Selph ESP Crew. Treated myself to a small prezzie for not having the internet at home. Call it substituting one vice for another. I am loving these super-deformed versions of Maschinen Krieger, the ultimate retro-futuristic bio-suited soldiers!

Toys, this APU from the Matrix
movie is uber-mecha....This massive deluxe set stands at 12 inches tall!!!!. (Gotta be seen to be believed) Articulation: Between the APU and human driver, this set has more than 40 points of articulation -- including several ball, gear-driv
Cowboy Bebop.. bebop bebop 2008-06-09 16:03:14 Cowboy
bebop was written by Keiko Nobumoto and directed by Shinichiro Watanabe. Because of the violence in the anime, Cowboy bebop almost did not appear on Japanese TV. In April 1998 Tokyo TV aborted the first run of the series; then in June they decided to only broadcast episodes 2, 3, 7 to 15 and 18 of this 26 episode series. Later that year WOWOW decided to broadcast the series in its entir
Meeting Of Styles London 2008 2008-06-09 15:59:03 Spent my Saturday afternoon at the Tube trains in East london documenting the 2008 London-leg of "Meeting Of Styles
". It was a brilliant day of drinking, smoking and meeting a huge range of writers from Europe, even Emar from Japan and a whole bunch of old-school Brit writers too. Turntablism and a nice BBQ were also in full effect upstairs which was like the cherry on top.I had decided to experim

Digital Multimedia Tattoo Interface 2008-06-12 10:10:39 OK, this is still just in concept phase but could be huuuuuge! (Or it could just disappear into the blog annals of 2008, who knows?!)

Ashley Wood X Three Zero Toys 2008-06-18 16:30:09 I am also loving Three
Zero/threeA's present and future toy releases with Ashley
Wood. He blends the old and new schools of war and mecha into a dark fantasy world inhabited by scary-looking robots and even scarier looking humans. This guy, called "NOM de PLUME" is a 12" figure apparently known as the faceless commander of the Dirty Deeds Platoon will have an extremely limited run of probably only
Goldie X Mysterious Al 2008-06-18 15:35:39 Loving the Mysterious Al packaging for Goldie's latest release. According to Al, "It's got Spot UV varnish and gold signature CD print! Freshness." "Watch The Ride" is out near you somewhere.
Dr Romanelli X Bearbrick 2008-06-25 06:00:11 Normally, I'm not a big fan of Bearbricks, (I only own one 400%), but Dr. Romanelli smashes it with his latest design. Approx. £12 for the small set and £27 for the 400% (28cm tall) version. Not bad going for such a retarded looking bear![VIA]
The Decapitator 2008-06-24 15:59:11 I am loving this guy's work at the moment. The Decapitator has been operating round east London for a while now and he is getting better. Thought this London Paper hijack was a good alternative way to get up.

I absolutely love these designs!Tattoo Gun design by Don MorleyPalm OS Robotic Tattoo MachineHome-made Prison Tattoo Gun.And for all those Toy Tattoo Artist
