Like most well-loved media, video games often inspire creative individuals to produce their own works of art. A look at most social news web sites or gaming blogs would suggest that these artistic endeavors consist of nothing but baked goods and graffiti, but this is not so; handmade craft store Etsy.com offers creators a platform with which to sell their game-related wares, and the variety of product contained therein is quite staggering. OK, so maybe most of it is soap -- but intrepid Etsy spelunkers Matt Clark and Brian Kent are here to take you beyond the soap, deep into the strange world of gaming crafts.
"Cool" Video Game Puppet
Description: I'm cool, I'm fun I like to play a lot with my DSI and can't be with out my Iphone cause I got to keep my facebook up to date I'm made from felt and foam and that's how I came to life to turn any frown upside down.
Brian: When the officers of NAMBLA got together to design themselves a mascot for the purposes of luring in prey, their effort gave birth to a puppet more frightening than any dried-up bird from The Dark Crystal. Now, I've placed my hands in a lot of disgusting places, places that hands were not meant to go, and this malformed muppet would still give me pause a moment before insertion. Just imagine the innards of such a gaming creature. Pushing your way past stale Hot Pockets, acidic Mountain Dew, Double Decker Tacos, and Nutter Butters to manipulate the mandible of this frightening creation is the realm of men with far more fortitude than I. If you are feeling lonely, though, we're sure this thing would fit perfectly over your Fleshlight for at least one night of acceptable losses. "...turn any frown upside down," while turning any stomach.
And yet, so fascinated were we with this authentic gamer depiction, we knew that we would be remiss to toss him aside like a Facebook friend request from your own mother. So, we have christened him Toby "the" Gamesmaster, official resident and spokespuppet of Etsy.com, and invited him to join us on our journey inside its craft-work bowels. Hopefully, his comments will provide some insight into the creative process and not make you throw up.
Daddy Is my Guitar Hero Baby Onesie
Description: Daddy Is my Guitar Hero Baby Onesie Bodysuit or Toddler TShirt. Give your baby some style! Also makes great baby shower gift!
Matt: He was his hero, until one day Daddy suddenly disappeared. Sure, dad was popular when he first broke out onto the scene, but everyone quickly grew tired of storing all his shit in the hall closet. You can't blame mom for having wandering eyes, kid; dad was becoming a bit redundant. The old man might have had an easier time if this shirt included more relevant instructions, e.g. "Please feed between raids," "Change diaper at Call of Doodie," or "Do not insert Wii-mote." With helpful tips like these, Daddy and the gaming community in general can avoid embarrassing news headlines or CSI reenactments that tarnish our illustrious public image.
