Female Superhero Costumes With Practical Redesigns

Female Superhero Costumes With Practical Redesigns
Female superhero costumes are anything but practical, so it’s no wonder that artist Lord Ingvard wondered what it would be like if female superhero character designs actually were more practical and functional. The artist did redesigns for several characters from the DC and Marvel universe.

Here we have Wonder Woman, Elektra, Supergirl, Black Canary, Ms. Marvel, Vampirella, Red Sonja, Power Girl, and Zatanna. There are no revealing designs here. No cleavage threatening to burst out, testing the strength of these costumes. Just practical clothing to get the job done.

Terminator: Genisys Concept Art

Terminator Genisys Concept Art
We know a fair bit about Terminator: Genisys’ plot already. The movie releases in just a few days. It looks like John Connor sends Kyle Reese back in time to save his mother Sarah from the Terminators before he is born. But this time around, when Kyle arrives in 1984, Sarah is already waiting for him. And she has brought her own Terminator.

I bet he didn’t expect that. Those scenes have been shown in all of the trailers, but the trailers haven’t shown us much about the future in this movie. This concept art from the upcoming book Terminator Genisys: Resetting the Future by David S. Cohen helps to shed some light on the darker grittier future in this movie. Not to mention all of the other concept art that we can’t see yet.

Boba Fett Costume Test Images From 1979

Boba Fett Costume Test Images From 1979
Several vintage Star Wars shots have surfaced that show off one of the the original costume tests for Boba Fett from around 1979. These behind the scenes images from The Empire Strikes Back show the evolution of the costume. It’s interesting to note all of the minor details that were changed.

This is from very early in the costume’s evolution. Yes, technically it made its public debut at the 1978 San Anselmo Country Fair parade and the Star Wars Holiday Special, but this is a nice look at it from around that time, where we get to see it close up. Both as a whole and some shots of the gear pieces by themselves.

Sci-Fi Wood Burning Art

Sci-Fi Wood Burning Art
GeekBurning makes all kinds of Sci-Fi wood burning art. This stuff would look great on your wall. Especially if you already have some geek themed decor. The seller makes everything from Battlestar Galactica, to Star Wars and Doctor Who wood burnings.

I especially love the wood burnings of the packages of Stars Wars trading cards. They are very nicely detailed and each a true work of art.

Doctor Who: Shia LaBeouf As Every Version Of The Timelord

Doctor Who Shia LaBeouf As Every Version Of The Timelord
Check out these amazing and fun portraits from artist Brandon Bird. They feature actor (And “Just do it” motivational speaker) Shia LaBeouf as each of the thirteen versions of The Doctor from Doctor Who. Oddly enough, I think he might be the most convincing as the 12th Doctor.

You can get prints of these paintings from his site and also buy the original oil paintings. Trying not to say it. No, really. I can resist. No I can’t. JUST DO IT!
