Hello games fans! It’s time for another mash-up on Wednesdays (and on time again too). So let’s get right into it.

Metroid was HARD! It was one of those games that I wasn’t very good at and I always got lost because I couldn’t be bothered mapping out the various screens and I had a terrible memory for them. I’d just wander around aimlessly trying not to die long enough to accomplish SOMETHING. I was not successful. Because of this I never got into any of the sequels.

Here’s Deema as Samus. I started with her sans helmet, but because I really equate Samus with the helmet, I did a version with it on as well.

That’s all for this week. Zoë’s up next time. Which game will she be covering? Come back and see!

Dungeons & Dragons – Druid

Hey it’s already Thursday. How did that happen? Oh well, here’s the mash-up you should have seen yesterday.

Druids are neat. They’re one of my preferred classes in fact. They use magic, but they also have some fairly unique abilities like being able to transform into elementals and the like (other classes can transform as well, but it seems to be a bigger part of being a druid). They also have (or had, I don’t remember if they still do in 5th edition) animal companions, which I dig. The last druid I played had a fox companion (surprise!). One of my sadder memories from that campaign was my fox dying in a fire trap. Doh!

Here’s Deema dressed as a druid. It’s a contrast to her role as tinkerer in the series.

That’s all for this week. A new class arrives next week. Wednesday in fact. Unless it isn’t. Have a great week.

The Force Awakens – Maz Kanata

Welcome back to the Wednesday Mash-up. Let’s have some fun with it.

When Han leans Rey and Finn to Maz’s place on Takodana, he warns them not to stare. We don’t really get a pay-off to that warning. We do learn that she’s Force sensitive and has a keen sense of observation (must be the goggles she wears). She refers to Chewbacca as her boyfriend (fiance in the French dub) but they don’t share any scenes together. She’s also over a 1000 years old so Yoda is no longer the oldest character in the saga.

Here’s Deema dressed as Maz. Looking at it now, I can see that I didn’t keep the lighting consistent at all. The light hits her face from the left (her left) but the rest of her body from the right. I’ll need to keep an eye on that in the future.

That’s all for the week. A new Force Awakens mash-up awaits you next Wednesday. Come back for the reveal.
