If you grew up reading fairy tales and watching Disney’s cartoons, then you know that they’ll usually end in happily ever after. But what if they somehow got bitten by one of the undead from The Walking Dead?

I don’t think the zombies would spare the princesses if Disney ever got hit by a zombie apocalypse. And to show everyone what would become of Ariel, Snow White, and Cinderella, artist extraordinaire Witit Karpkraikaew drew up these eerie images of the undead princesses.

As you can see above, the skin is just melting from Ariel’s frame. And here’s Snow White, looking not-so-white or pure with brains instead of an apple.

Cinderella is the darkest of the three, as she wields an ax and is chewing on her otherwise missing glass slipper for a quick snack.

Witit’s DeviantArt page has been hit with comments and requests for more zombie princesses. I personally would love to see a zombie Belle, from Beauty and the Beast.

In most offices, corkboards with announcements and notices tacked on using pushpins are uncommon. Perhaps this is where Kenyon Yeh got the inspiration for his Pushpin Cork table-slash-stool design.

There are three cool things about Yeh’s design. First of all, it takes elements from both the corkboard and the pushpin and merged the entire thing to form his piece. Second, it’s multi-functional. Use it as a stool if you need one, or flip it over to its other end and use it as a side table. Lastly, the whole thing is made out of cork! That, in itself, is pretty amazing enough already.

Thankfully, there’s no giant pin sticking out of it where you sit.

I love the occasional cocktail or two, but I’ve always had to keep it at a minimum. I’ve got my reasons, with the main one being the fact that I turn beet red once I consume even a drop (okay, several drops) of alcohol-laced fluids into my system.

But I doubt I’d be able to contain myself if I came across this cosmic concoction.

As some people claim, the above is a result of Photoshop and a bit of tweaking. But you really can mix up your own glowing cocktails, with the right recipe and  a black light.

Maybe you can even achieve something similar the otherworldly looking mix in the image if you mix it slowly and shine the black light while you do. This is called the Aurora Jungle-Juice cocktail, and once everything settles down, you’ll end up with something that looks like this:

It’s basically a mix of either gin or vodka, tonic water, and Rose’s Mojito Passion or Pink Lemonade concentrate. Then add in some ice, bring your black light, and voila! Awesomeness.

You can check out the recipe here.

Snowspeeders are awesome. One of my favorite parts from The Empire Strikes Back is the Hoth battle, with those Snowspeeders zipping all over the place. If you want to make your own snowspeeder, this is how it is done. You just need some cardboard, duct tape and a can-do attitude.

After this Snowspeeder was finished by “Fortyozjuicebox”, it was attached to a sled base for some winter time fun. He actually made this for a Downhill Derby Cardboard and Duct Tape Contest. It may not take out an AT-AT walker, but she’s got it where it counts.

Judging by the video, it looks like a smooth ride as well. I guess it won’t be long until we see daily Snowspeeder races. I personally can’t wait.

Get it? It’s a Geiger Counter made to look like it was created by H.R. Giger. I don’t know about you, but Giger’s Aliens creations creep me out. Therefore I could never use this. I would be too afraid that it would eat me from the hand up. Just let the radiation kill me.

If on the other, you hand want to check for signs of radiation on some alien world, then this Giger Geiger counter is for you. The base radioactive sensor electronics were purchased from Adafruit industries and then modded into a xenomorph by Steve D of Mad Art Lab.

It looks pretty amazing, and quite scary. And yes it does actually work as proven in the video. Now you can be safe from radiation and freak people out at the same time.
