Some reminders as we get closer to Halloween. Vampires can only enter your home if invited. Vampires can be dispatched with a stake through the heart, not to be confused with steak. Garlic is delicious, if you're not a vampire. VAMPIRES DON'T FRIGGIN' SPARKLE (knock that crap off this instant). And vampires built in LEGO by vitreolum get blogged.
It's hard work, killing vampires, but it doesn't have to be unfashionable. The well-appointed gentleman slayer keeps all his supplies orderly, and you can too with this deluxe vampire hunter's kit from V&A Steamworks. With all the supplies you might need including holy water, a crucifix, stakes and more. All in a smart and attractive case that lets your prey know you mean business. So before you set out in the night again pick up this kit and always be ready for anything!
It's an amazing thing when phenomenal building, great photography and serious Photoshop chops all come together. I've been watching the progress on this piece by CASTOR-TROY for months, and I'm so excited to see it's not only done, but mindblowingly great.
