It’s Saturday, and that means it’s yet another post for Grim’s Dungeons of Doom, that being of the advanced (but still quite easy) version of the cemetery gateway, actual opening gates. I have tried to use alternatives methods and materials to give you some different ideas that you can take away and adapt for your own builds on a variety of model projects. Continue reading

Grim’s Dungeons of Doom: Realm of the dead; Cemetery Gateway
11 JunHello everyone, it’s me Grim. In my absence, I at least have been amassing a fair bit of material here to continue on with both this series and the blog. I hope you’ll forgive my leave, but shit happens.
So, it’s been a while since posting the last dungeons of doom article. With that in mind, I present to you a series of new load of themed tutorials that deal with the realm of the dead. Over time we’ll be concentrating on a different theme at a time, focusing first with the graveyard/cemetery starting with this creepy skull encrusted cemetery gateway… Continue reading →

More than 100 graves robbed in Benin for voodoo rituals – chicagotribune.com

More than 100 graves robbed in Benin for voodoo rituals – chicagotribune.com.
All I can say about this is that the washed down version of witchcraft and the occult we have in the west isn’t a patch on these crazy freaks in Benin!
From the various stories I have read from all over the African sub continent with their shady rituals using human fat in candles and how every satanist who wants to impress his followers, goes to aquire the latest must have human skull for their altar!
I realise that living in the UK is a comfort in one way, at least we don’t have to worry about someone trying to sell grandmas corpse just before chrimbo!!
