Warlock 7, December 1985/January 1986. John Blanche, 1985.

Apparently starring Colin Baker as one of the Hobbits and David Coverdale as Legolas.

let me tell some of you young cats something: one of my life regrets is that I wasn’t even more of a geek when I was, like, 12 and 13. should have read twice as many comics. should have stuck with D & D instead of quitting immediately upon finding out you couldn’t really “just take your chances” against monsters you weren’t equipped to fight. geek hard my friends. geek hard.

John Darnielle from The Mountain Goats sends a message to the youth.

From the founder of D20 Burlesque:

“Hey everyone. I joined this contest to perform burlesque in Hollywood on a whim, and am amazed and so grateful to all of the fans who have come out of the woodwork to support me!

Being a nerdy burlesque performer means that most of the geeky work I do, which is about 95% of the acts I create) is not typically accepted in major burlesque festivals due to it being too obscure or the application judges just don’t get it, so you don’t see it very often.

This contest is a way for me to get to perform something wonderfully nerdy and geeky in front of a Hollywood audience, but only if I can make it in the top 6 by midnight tonight (May 15th).

I could really use any and all support today from those of you out there willing to help this little ol’ nerd from NYC make it to Hollywood to show them that nerdlesque is a legitimate form of striptease! You can help by voting for me-this means going to my burlesqueipedia page (linked here) and commenting on the bottom (must be signed into Facebook).

It seems that the votes are not being updated immediately, so even though it might show me in the top 6, please still vote as there is a high chance I have slipped down to 7th place.

So, in conclusion, thank you to those who have already voted, and thank you to those new voters today, I couldn’t have done this without you!

xoxox, Anja Keister

Hey kids, it's TV's Cthulu!

The Portal cube prop

vonbrunk:

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!

“Our ultimate goal is to create a STEM-aligned video game badge for the Girl Scouts of the United States of America. Creating this badge will get young girls excited in technology and science and let them know that they, too, can have a career in the video game industry. — Amy Allison, vice president at Women in Games International on the new Game Development badge being worked on for the Girl Scouts.”
