Harry Potter Film Posters Alternative Horror Versions

Prisoner of Azkaban HorrorPrisoner of Azkaban Horror

One of the coolest series of alternative art online right now is the Scary Potter collection by Dylan Pierpont, giving a beautiful yet chilling horror twist to Harry Potter film posters, or book covers if you prefer.

There’s no denying the dark appeal of Harry Potter, which is a children’s book series and intended for children in the cinema initially, but it’s one of those franchises that its fandom grew with it. Things got darker in the third book/movie, Prisoner of Azkaban, and progressed in that direction, with more mature themes, with every new installment.

So if you don’t mind your childhood ruined and are looking for a spooky look at the series, take a look at these.

Another year is ending, a new one is just around the corner, as so it’s time for our annual list of the best works of fan art we came across over the last 12 months.

From Stranger Things to the usual dominance of Game of Thrones and Star Wars, along with the resurgence of Pokemon thanks to Pokemon Go, and other less time-specific references like certain video games, movies and TV shows, this list probably has a little bit of something for everyone.

Gorgeous Low Poly Scenes From Star Wars, Game of Thrones & More

Death Star Trench

Things look beautiful in good Low Poly graphics, and famous scenes from Star Wars, Back to the Future and Game of Thrones are quite exquisite to relive through these awesome looking graphics.

Star Wars (Death Star Chase)

For those who haven’t seen Episode IV: A New Hope, the chase does end at some point.

The graphics were made by Brazilian artist Bruno Alberto, who is publishing them from time to time on his Facebook page, Low Poly Scenes.

Game of Thrones (Hold the Door)

Makes me cry every time.

Back to the Future (Hitting 88mph)

Marty looks five years old in Low Poly.

Indiana Jones (Running away from that huge ball)

Free Willy (The only scene anyone remembers from the movie)

The thing about Free Willy is that this movie isn’t as good as you might remember it, for those who were kids when it came out. Actually, the graphics in this Gif are probably better than the visual effects in the original film.

Beautiful, Dark Zelda Meets Fallout Mashup Art

Lone Wanderer Link

There’s nothing I love more than some good mashup art and ideas, like this series of artworks combining the post Nuclear world of the Fallout games with characters from The Legend of Zelda and the kingdom of Hyrule.

This is some beautiful work done by Andrew D. Tran, who specializes in these kind of mashups between famous fantasy and pop culture series and objects. The combination of the innocent looking Zelda, Link and others (except for Ganon) with the rugged look of the Fallout universe works very well.

Best Fallout Fan Art Ever Made

Let's go pal

It won’t be long before Fallout 4 finally comes out, so it’s a good opportunity to go over the best fan art this game has inspired over the years, including a couple of recent works with the soon-to-be-released game in mind.

Fallout 4 will come out on November 10, 2015 on the PC, PS4 and Xbox one. It’s release will come five years after the release of Fallout: New Vegas, which took us through the Mojave, while the new game will focus on Boston and its surroundings.

10 World Leaders as Modern Day Fashionable Hipsters

Abraham Lincoln

It’s hard to imagine Abraham Lincoln of Vladimir Lenin as fashionable, almost Hipster like characters. It’s good thing artists like Amit Shimoni do that creative thinking for us.

The Israel designer started HIPSTORY as a way of comparing Israeli leaders of the past with today’s leading men and women and also the different fashion trends.

The success of the project caused it to expand, and include other decision makers with a more global flavor.
