Robin In The Hood - Trading Cards

Posted by Wyck on November 10th, 2006

A while ago I did some trading cards for the Robin in the Hood medieval festival in Elmira, Ontario. I came across them recently and went through them all again. I had such a good time making them. It really got me into photoshopping images.
The idea was to do a trading card […]

World Of Warcrack

Posted by Wyck on October 23rd, 2006

For those of you who don’t think it’s an addiction, consider that my dad has a level 30 character, and he only plays at my place when he visits for the occasional weekend, a two hour drive between us, and he has logged 9 days, 17 hours total time played!
As a present to my dad, […]

Fly Me Tangent To The Moon

Posted by Wyck on October 16th, 2006

Going off on a tangent, however biprepositionally oxymoronic that may be, doesn’t often involve literally flying in a straight line that intersects a circle at exactly one point.

All I wanna know is, if I was sitting on the […]

An Urgent Letter for Sir Morden

Posted by Wyck on September 22nd, 2006

Every once in a while there comes a moment of pure magic in improvised theatre. For example, consider the Royal Medieval Faire, where I play Sir Morden of Blackmoore. You never know how the people are going to interact with you, and you have to be ready for anything.
After five fights, a bloody […]

Royal Medieval Fight Club

Posted by Wyck on September 18th, 2006

Each September, there is a medieval faire in Waterloo showcasing exciting swordfights between knights in cool medieval costumes. If you decide to go, you’ll find yourself milling about the fictional kingdom of Mearth interacting with the lords and ladies, knights and squires, and even the King and Queen. Your experience is entirely up […]
