Check Out the Newest "Blade Runner" Short: It’s Anime, Done by the Creator of "Cowboy Bebop"

As we mentioned earlier , Blade Runner 2049 director Denis Villeneuve commissioned three short films to bridge the gap between the original movie and his upcoming sequel. The first, featuring Jared Leto, was pretty darn good. The second, featuring Dave Bautista, was so-so. Both of those were live-action, but the third short, entitled “Black Out 2022” is anime and it’s fantastic. It was done by Shinichiro Watanabe, the creator of the wildly popular Cowboy Bebop series. Check it out (and be warned, there’s some graphic violence): I thought the flashback sequence was particularly artful. It was also cool to hear the return of Edward James Olmos (yes, that’s him voice his original character), and I dug how Trixie clearly references Pris from the original film. Blade Runner 2049 will go into wide release this Friday.

How to Add Metal Inlay to Wood

Adding metal inlay is a nice way to provide visual pop to wooden objects or furniture: The art of inlay is something that used to take decades to master. Now, with digital fabrication tools–or heck, maybe even a trim router with a downcut bit guided by a steady hand–the cutting part goes a lot quicker. However, that doesn’t mean the work can be taken lightly. As Instructables user Ninjosh shows, there’s still a fair bit of manual labor and finessing involved: “Inlays are a great way to set your work apart in a crowded market, ” writes Ninjosh. If you’d like to give it a try yourself, he’s laid out a comprehensive Instructable listing all the tools you’ll need and offering plenty of helpful advice, including the all-important, time-saving what-not-to-do’s.

‘Skyrim Special Edition’ is the remaster you asked for

The rumors are true : We’re getting a prettier version of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Developer Bethesda ported the original game to this round of modern consoles as part of the development process for last year’s wildly popular Fallout 4 , so it was just a matter of time before we actually saw it. And guess what? Mods are coming with it, thanks to Bethesda’s framework that allows players to use fan-made customizations on consoles. This new version of the game looks really well-improved in the visual department too and you can check it out in the trailer embedded below. Does mod support mean that we’ll see the game’s dragons replaced with My Little Ponies ? It certainly sounds like it. Let’s hope that Bethesda has that pesky piracy situation under control soon. Time to get those vocal cords ready for all the shouting (FUS RO DAH) you’ll be doing come October 28th when it launches for new-gen consoles. Follow all the news from E3 2016 here !
