It’s been a few weeks since Leonard Nimoy passed away and it is going to take time to come to terms with that if you are one of the many people that he touched. Argentinian artist Juan Miranda created this stunning retro tribute to the original Vulcan.
We will never see another soul like his again. Kirk was right. His was the most human. And as long as we remember him, he is not really dead.
These fine examples of Avengers makeup for your eyelids make an amazing makeup statement. I’m not sure who the makeup artist is, but she did a fantastic job. All of the Avengers are represented here and they all look pretty sexy.
Check out this amazing concept art from Jupiter Ascending by George Hull. This concept art focuses on the starships of the movie. These images are epic. You can check out more at his site if you have a few hours to spare as you marvel at everything there.
Great works of art stand the test of time and are instantly recognizable. Some of them are worth millions of dollars. Others are priceless. How can we improve these classic masterpieces? Add some superheroes of course. That;s always a good answer.
People are doing just that at Worth1000. You can see a bunch of entries here. I think you will agree that these fine works of art are much better now and just as classic.
Hipster Superheroes. I guess that is either a good thing or a bad thing depending if you are a Hipster or not. This fun series comes from artist Phillip Sevy and it includes both Marvel & DC Superheroes as hipsters.
One thing is for sure. These are not the heroes that we know and love. This is a pretty drastic change for all of them. I never thought that I would see Batman as a hipster.
A new book highlights some of the most gorgeous costume work from the original Star Wars trilogy. In Star Wars Costumes: The Original Trilogy, Brandon Alinger has compiled a history of every major costume from the first three Star Wars films. Think about that for a moment. Think about all of the charcters that were on screen in that trilogy. This was not an easy task.
Check out the trailer for the book here as well as some of the pages. This is going to be a fun read.
This series of Batman art done in the 1966 style is awesome. Where was this cartoon series when I was a kid? These fantastic illustrations are from Des Taylor, who has an amazing eye for Batman style.
They could still do this cartoon today. I see it as Mad Men meets Gotham, meets Bewitched. I just love those colors and that retro style. Well, we may not have this on TV, but at least Des Taylor gives us a glimpse into this fantastic world.
Sometimes you come across some poster art that is just stunning and blows you away. Take a moment to really absorb this art by Orlando Arocena. It is striking, bold, colorful and super detailed.
No one will blame you if you just stare at the screen for several minutes appreciating these awesome posters.
In recent years the Enterprise has gone digital, but the original version of Star Trek’s flagship was a real-life miniature model. So, what happens when you replace the digital Enterprise of New Trek with the older model?
Illustrator and concept artist Nick Acosta shows us. He took some photos of the original model which is currently being restored at the Smithsonian and composited those images into newer film shots. The results are nothing short of amazing. It just goes to show you that physical props are more realistic. If it is lit correctly, it beats digital every time.
I don’t know about you, but I’m not manly enough to get a tattoo. However, if I ever man up and get one, it would probably be something awesome like the tattoos below. These excellent tattoos of LEGO Minifigs were made by Polish artist Max Pniewski from Bristol, England.
The artist obviously loves to ink LEGO Minifigs and he does an excellent job. Everything from Breaking Bad to Star Wars and superheroes. I love the quality of his work. Maybe it’s time I just walk in and get a tattoo. Nah. I’ll just admire these.
