If you are a fan of gore and horror flicks, then you'll love these tutorials. The Photoshop Roadmap linked some great tutorials that will chill your spine.

We've seen some cool speed paintings... from John Locke to Optimus Prime. And now, it's the turn of Iron Man. Have all of you seen already the movie? Maaan, isn't that freaking awesome?

Deviantart, Flickr, various portfolios... these are just some examples of places where you might find some superb art work. DepthCORE is one of these places. depthCORE is an international art collective focused on modern and abstract art, incorporating design, photography, animation and audio.

Collage works are pretty cool. People can go crazy and still, their pieces are most likely to become some awesome stuff. This is the case of Artur 'Kjá, a Brazilian creative who's been doing some cool collage work. If you got your own collages, please, drop a comment linking it!! Thanks

When it comes to Photoshop, one of the easiest things to do is to select an image and cut it from the background. But some people might not know how to do that, so here are some cool video tutorials on how to do it.

Lego is a world mania for sure. From kids to adults, it is the toy of choice to thousands, probably millions of people world wide. And when it comes to cool creations, we find awesome stuff really easy. If you have your own Lego creations, please, drop a comment linking it!! Thanks!

From time to time we run into cool fonts sites, some of these have become a reference to all of us, like dafont. You can see some cool font design there... but what if you find the coolest font in a personal site?
