Description I don't know if I'm the only one out here, but, back in the days, my father subscribed me to a monthly dino-magazine with loads of articles and cool stuff about those giant ancient reptiles. With each copies came a small skeleton part which, once assembled with other parts, would form a 2 foot tall T-Rex skeleton at the end of the year! My dad cancelled my subscription after a year 'cuz he was tired of paying so I never had the chance to add skin on my dinosaur

It messed my whole life up! Geez! Now you know why I'm fuck'd up and why I have multiple bitchy personalities...

Anyhow, my favorite part of the dino-mag was the one where there were red and green 3d pictures that could be watched out with cool-looking futuristic 3d glasses. Oh yeah.

Now that I found the technique, even though I know it's pretty common in avantgarde design, I can put up all my nostalgy in a single, yet quite simple, photo-manip picture. I tried to make it look like a grossly aligned scan and i think it's quite a success.

All stocks from sxc.hu (Dinosaur, skeleton, man and a quite invisible glazed paper texture), font is Bauhaus 93 no brushes... which is disturbing :S

DAMN! Mes parents m'ont abonné a ce magasine là quand j'étais plus jeune! J'les ai encore dans une boite quelque part!

Juste pour souffrir avec toi, moi aussi mes parents ont pas voulu payer assez longtemps pour que je puisse mettre de la peau sur le dino. Ca doit etre pour ca quon aime bien les cranes et les os, don't you think?

Sûrement, lol, c'est la société qui nous a rendu addict aux ossements! On engage une poursuite contre les musées d'archéologie!

Bla, bla, bla... Do you figure out we're gonna read all that nostalgic boring shit? No way Leger, stop complaining about how a pathetic dinosaur magazine ruined your life and get eaten by one of those giant flesh-craving monsters, you idiot!

Your so dumb you wouldn't even be able to realise your being eaten by one of those without the help of your nerdy-looking 3d glasses!
