I know this is a bindun...
...but mine is completely IRL and practical, I only used tattyshop to resize and crop the image.

I even fired the old girl up, had a few problems with BASIC crashing on boot up, but I eventually got her stable enough to do this:

I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it :)
*EDIT*: The SCSI cables in the background in the first shot are completely circumstantial... I'm an engineer, these things tend to breed and multiply when left in plastic boxes for several months.

I feel my hatred grow all the more extreme...

I spent bloody ages doing this! The writing was too small to be cut out and I don't have a white pen.

RHCP BloodSugarSexMagik

I made this from glass paints a few years ago and used to have it on my school planner.
Glad it fits this compo too.

Underrated masterpiece time? I think it probably is.
Shame about this, but I forgot to get a red bulb so had to shoot with one camera while tinkering with the pre-shot light on an old one.

Is she RIS?

Just because we are the Pinguinos...

The penguins objected to the face paint so had to PS it :-(

definitely one of the pinguino favourite albums

Yes, we know we're not supposed to photoshop, but we didn't have time to drum up 4 people.
Ok, we admit it, we actually don't have that many friends...
Only photoshopping that has been done is pasting the faces on to the background so we like to think of it as bending the rules...
