Dear Puffin,
Apologies for the radio silence. This employment lark is not as much fun as I was led to believe. Anyway, hope to be writing more from now on. The republican line up is providing material faster than I can even process it, let alone write about it. And I’m just barely keeping the lid on a simmering rant about PETA, which should be…. interesting.
But as far as today is concerned, take a look at these! Remember the art nouveau Firefly posters I’ve written about before? Well Quantum Mechanix has just released posters of the gentlemen of Firefly. Unfortunately I don’t like them quite as much as the ladies. Some of these seem a little forced, especially when you compare them to things like the Jaynestown poster. But they’re still pretty excellent.
I’ll be back tomorrow Puffin. No really, I will.
Love
MacGuffin

Dear Puffin,
Remember the Firefly travel posters I have in my nerd shrine bathroom? And the art nouveau Doctor Who posters from Bill Mudron, that I talk about constantly? Well, everything seems to have come together. Megan Lara has just released this incredible series of art nouveau, Alphone Mucha style Firefly posters.
I’ve often felt that you can learn a lot about a guy by which Firefly girl he goes for. 99% go for Inara or Kaylee, the occasional one goes for River, but I’ve never once heard a guy go for Zoe. Clearly, none of you have ever been with a warrior woman!
You can buy them all here.
I also found some art nouveau versions of Starbuck and Boomer, from Battlestar Galactica, by Deviantartist Moon-Pookah.
Mudron’s got a new piece out too, although it isn’t art nouveau. It’s more of a Japanese woodblock print knockoff, featuring Madame Vastra and Jenny battling a pair of Cybermen. And it’s awesome! Click to embiggen.
And finally, a little piece of whimsy to brighten this horribly hot and sticky day: The Doctor and the Little Prince, by Deviant artist JaviDLuffy.
Love
MacGuffin

Dear Puffin
Forbidden Planet is selling Doctor Who shirts for each of the Doctors. It is totally essential that I own all of these immediately. IMMEDIATELY!
I must tragically report that this glorious Art Nouveau style Inara appears to be a once off. I would give my right arm to see a full set of these, much in the style of Bill Mudron. But in the meantime Tiffany is a WINNER.
This purports to be a graphic representation of the development of Science Fiction. I’ll admit that I haven’t really looked at it in detail, but it looks pretty neat. Click to embiggen.
This leaves something to be desired graphically, but the thought behind it is so perfect that I’ll let it pass. From Deviant Summerfic
I also found some fun minimal comic book posters by Greg Guillemin
We also have Rebel Alliance and Imperial snowflakes. Yu can also get them as tshirts at Redbubble. I really want to get these somehow laser cut and available as Christmas tree ornaments.
And finally, someone possesses the greatest of all possible hot air balloons. A Darth Vader hot air balloon, for your delectation:
And on that note, I am off to frost a gigantic birthday cake. Because happy birthday Jeremy!
Love
MacGuffin (who is trying to decide between dark chocolate and bittersweet chocolate ganache for the frosting. Thoughts?)
