Dave Rapoza: Rendering Nerds Speechless...

Us nerds.  I include myself among the people who were thrilled right down to our geek toes when we saw Dave Rapoza's unique vision for Power Rangers and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Dave told me I could post some of his stuff here, so see for yourselves!

 Yes, this is April!!

 Splinter

....now the boys!

 Michelangelo

 Leonardo

 Donatello

 Raphael

 ....and just to give you a sample of one of Dave's TMNT villains--

 

Yes, that's Slash!  Wow. Never thought I could actually be afraid of him.  Thanks, Dave.

 And there are even more TMNT characters, like Shredder for example, that you can see for yourselves on Dave's sites!



Power Rangers.  You love 'em, I love 'em, everybody loves 'em.  Look at Dave's PR.  I've got your Red Ranger right here:

 Now THAT is a muthafcking Power Ranger!  XD  This is a limited print that Dave had at SDCC. I wish I'd known at the time, I would have gotten one!




Dave also does things to your nerd insides by making MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE stuff.  

 Yup. Skeletor. 

He also has others, like Evil Lynn and Trapjaw, but I promise you you have not seen any He-Man villain done insanely right until you've seen Dave's Mer-Man.

I would love to post all of Dave's stuff here, but he said I could post some, not all!  So you guys should visit his sites to see more fantastic art! Dave works on a variety of themes (not just nerd stuff) so you should check it out.

You don't know Jeff DeKal? WHY!?!! ....The MindBlowing Art of Jeff DeKal

This dude is one of my favorite painters/artists. Jeff's talent, style, and diverse body of work is eyeball crippling. The boy handles all this art business like a boss, and is always inspiring.  Did I mention the diversity in his body of work?   Yeah. You know I'm all about that.

 Jeff sent me these for the blog!

 Em

 Laisi

 Friends

 Medusa

  Mother Nature/Hope

 Soiree

This is but a small sampling of Jeff's work. Visit his site for more of amazing stuff.  ---> Jeff "DeKal" Becker

A Dangerous Piece by Mari and Keone!

 THIS?  Is so damn good I watched it four times back to back.  Mari and Keone kill it again.

I can't get a larger vid to post, but definitely watch this one on YT. You miss some of the intricate and fun bits with a smaller viewer. --->  Mari and Keone Kill MJ

Visit their YT channel, and subscribe!  Two fun and crazy-talented dancers! Keone and Mari

You just lost your sh*t, didn't you?  I know.


Hey, hey, I'm back to updating this blog!  So much inspiring stuff out there.

The link above takes you to a BRILLIANT piece by one of my favorite artists, Allen Williams (aka L.A. Williams). I'd love to add images here, but I want to have permission. But links work, too! :) His old website is long gone, but his new site is finally being updated (FINAAAALLLY), so now we can all go there and stare at things.

Enjoy the graphite and pencil piece, Carybdis.  Stare and fall. Feels good. In a "am I being body-snatched?" kind of way.  I'm gonna stop for now though. This stalking business...I try not to dwell.... disrupts my life...



You carry on!
