Woah. That’s a sculpture made from the tip of a pencil. See even more tiny pencil tip art by Dalton Ghetti here.

Yeah, That’s a Talking Shell Alright [video]
MARCEL THE SHELL WITH SHOES ON from Dean Fleischer-Camp on Vimeo.
This video by director Dean Fleischer-Camp is undeniably weird and oddly adorable. Props to all the wacky imaginations involved in making it. Give it a couple of minutes and I promise you that you won’t be able to tear yourself away.

Super Mario Shaped Soda Grocery Store Display
I think a certain stock boy deserves a raise for this masterpiece. (Via thedailywh.at)
Polaroid Just Got Cute
Flickr user Bnice2mice crafts up insanely adorable versions of inanimate objects. (If my crafty mojo is correct, I believe this is needlepoint on plastic canvas.)
Menta-Kun and Chibi Menta by Dehara
Dehara Yukinori is an artist from Japan. Amongst other things, he makes designer vinyl toys. My personal favorites are the Menta-Kun and Chibi Menta guys (both available at rotofugi). I don’t know what they are, but they are adorable.
Something tells me there’s a vaguely disturbing explanation for what these guys are judging from Dehara’s other works. But I prefer to just think of them as adorable little veiny guys who sit on a shelf in my dining room and make me happy! haha.
Kokoro Beat – Fun with 8-Bit Video Game Arts
I’d say this cute little 8-bit video-game-themed animation was worth the quadrillions of hours that must have gone into it.
Sweet Donut Art Print
Not only is this print sweet but I’d say it’s also suuuuuuuuuuh-weet!
It was designed by the awesome team at 64 Colors and you can buy it at JapanLA.com.
One Way to Get a Close Shave
I have a bit of a fascination with model railroad miniatures. I also have more than a bit of fascination with this photographer/artist who sets up amazing photographs featuring these tiny little people in unexpected settings.
Check out the artist Flickr user bousserez to see this photo and more.
Fire at a Local Mushroom Farm
I feel like Howie Woo should win some sort of Nobel Prize for being able to do so many amusing things so well. He’s a cartoonist, he makes movies, he’s funny, he’s got a really wacky imagination… and oh yeah, he also crochets like a mofo.
The picture above is of a crocheted vignette he came up with after reading a story in the news about a big fire at a local mushroom farm.
See what I mean?
