Northern Belle really did a killer job on this Rogue / The Thing crossover cosplay. I’m not sure if this ever happened in the comic books, but if not, it really should have. Rogue looks great as The Thing. The body paint, done by Artisticurves is really amazing.
The photography was done by Seai Photography. You can tell she really had fun doing this cosplay.

Etsy seller BeatUpCreations takes old antique and beat up plates and transforms them into beautiful works of art. Many have a modern theme. In their shop you can find everything from Pee-Wee Herman to Mr. T, to David Bowie on antique plates. My favorites are the Star Wars pieces that they’ve created.
Most of them are classic paintings with a Star Wars twist. They are an amazing mix of old and new. Just the right kind of geeky to hang on your home or office wall. The C-3PO plate just makes me laugh, but I want them all.
If you enjoyed Neill Blomkamp’s Chappie, you are going to love reading Chappie: The Art of the Movie. This book is full of interesting facts about the movie and it has tons of awesome images. Check out the video below to get a preview.
This large oversized hardcover artbook is written by Peter E. Aperlo, and published by Titan Books. It has 160 pages that will keep fans engrossed. It has everything from behind-the-scenes photographs, film stills, concept art and entertaining production stories. This is a must have for fans of Blomkamp’s movies.
R2-ME2 is an awesome Sideshow Collectibles art show where a bunch of talented artists reimagine our favorite droid, R2-D2. These custom R2-D2s were on display at the 2015 Star Wars Celebration event in Anaheim, California.
They are all based on a Sideshow R2-D2 Deluxe 1/6 Scale Action Figure. These creations are both original and inspiring. You have never seen R2-D2 like this before. I hope we see more projects like this one in the future.
Did you know that there are Eight Immortals in Chinese mythology? Chinese mythology is pretty interesting. No doubt about it, but I am really intrigued to learn more about the eight Avenger immortals painted by Chinese Illustrator Xia-a. I can only imagine the epic tales that could be told about this group.
I love a good mashup between modern geek mythology and classic mythological tales. Awesome!
Lilly Mähdrescher could teach the Joker a thing or two about makeup. This is Lily’s creative Batman inspired fashion makeup photo shoot. Lily did the modelling, makeup and styling. I think she totally captured the spirit of Gotham’s bad girls if they did a runway show in Arkham Asylum.
Even male characters like Mr. Freeze and The Penguin are portrayed here as female fashionistas. These looks will be all the rage among Gotham’s crazies this fall.
This cardboard Millennium Falcon is a pretty impressive creation. If you have a few hundred cardboard boxes laying around, you might want to build one of your own. Although I doubt it will be as amazingly detailed as Imgur user Thomas Richner‘s creation.
It is a 5ft. long scale model made almost entirely of cardboard, except for a bit of balsa wood along the hull. If that isn’t enough, it even has retractable landing gear and a detachable radar dish. It took Thomas 140 hours of work and as far as I’m concerned it was totally worth it. This thing is amazing. He even took a few shots against a green screen and it actually looks like it belongs in the movies.
The 1970s was an awesome time for Sci-Fi. We had Star wars, Battlestar Galactica, Logan’s Run… I could go on all day. Jeff Quigley obviously loves himself some 1970s Sci-Fi, so he created these amazing retro 70s Sci-Fi posters.
There’s a Cylon Centurion, The Six Million Dollar Man as a Cyborg, Twiki from Buck Rogers represents an Android and even Knight Rider as a Vigilante. I love the retro style and colors. These could have easily been promotional posters for these shows back in the day.
I love the colors and the style of these retro Guardians of the Galaxy posters from Keith Bogan. The gang is all here. The team share the first poster and each character also has their own.
And if you like them, you can buy some stuff with these images on them from his online shop.
Here’s some cosplay you don’t see nearly often enough. A Silurian Warrior from Doctor Who. The question is this. Is she a friend or a foe of the Doctor’s? Maybe she is getting ready to battle some Sea Devils.
These awesome photos come from SuperHeroPhotos. Wow! Just wow! That makeup and costume are just excellent.
