Twice a year the sun lines up with the East/West street grid of Manhattan. People call this Manhattanhenge now. I had never heard of this before.

A model of a moonhopper, an original design by the incredible Randy Cooper, based on the 2001 aesthetic, found on Starship Modeler, a website for people who build models of starships.

Why has this never been a character in a horror film? He could irradiate you with his mere proximity. You’d know he was coming by the faint, eerie clicking of a geiger counter. Seriously, this is one scary costume!
He takes horrors you know - HP Lovecraft, Day of the Triffids, vampires, werewolves, dragons and hideous faeries - and makes Victorian era scientific displays of fossils, artifacts and ephemera as they might have been collected by naturalists studying these creatures. Click his artwork page - you won’t be sorry.
