D20 Burlesque, with its large fan base of assorted freaks & geeks! Anja Keister flaunts her stuff as being the greatest fantasy for nerds since Slave Leia! For those of you in the New York area, check out D20’s extensive lineup of creative and geeky burlesque shows!
This is one of my few custom projects that actually uses techniques outside the traditional realm of LEGO — the Aperture logo on the back of Anja’s orange jumpsuit has been superimposed with Photoshop. I rarely ever use computer effects (aside from hue/lighting) to modify my projects. Otherwise, everything is what you see. The lighting was done in a makeshift lightbox in my closet with a single white daytime CFL bulb as a brightness source, with white balance settings rigged up on my camera.
The Portal cube stage and Robo-Cthulu were made first, then each minifig was specially selected from my collection. The audience members are shown as:
Star Wars:
- Clone troopers
- Darth Maul
- Boba Fett
- Hoth Rebel soldier
- CIS Battle droids
- AT-ST pilot
- AT-AT pilot
- AT-AT Hoth trooper
- X-Wing fighter pilot
- Two Snowtroopers
- Stormtrooper
- Scout Trooper
- Master Yoda
- Gamorrean guard
Various:
- Sherlock Holmes
- Hulk Hogan
- Toy Story alien
- Batman
- Harry Potter
- Zombie in hazmat suit
- Generic kid in a hoodie with anime hair
- Norse dwarf warrior
Some of these minifigs are in fact rare discontinued figures that I’m deliberately showing off — the Batman, Darth Maul, Boba Fett and yellow-skinned Harry Potter to name a few!
