Make-up and SFX vlogger Caitlyn Kreklewich worked with Wholesale Halloween Costumes this year on a pop art Harley Quinn look. We already know thanks to data from Costume Supercenter that Harley was a big hit last year and superheroes are fairly evergreen when it comes to costumes. A pop art twist on this Gotham siren […]

12 Masks of Halloween: #3 Steampunk leather helmet
It’s getting close to Halloween and Geek Native marks the passing of time by surfacing a new mask each day. It’s a years old tradition on the site and there’s even Google+ Collection for easy browsing if want to check out yesteryears. We’ve featured steampunk asks before but not one of Imperat Shop’s creations. This […]
Stranger Things dress
How is this for a Halloween costume? This picture from Cosplay America of the cosplayer Kittie Cosplay. The dress is clever because it takes two memorable features of Stranger Things, rather than any of the (human) characters, and blends them together. The result is immediately identifiable. Cosplay America has the nice story of Kittie bumping […]
12 Masks of Halloween: #2 Supreme Leader Snoke

12 Masks of Halloween: #1 Cyclops Skull
Geek Native counts the days down to Halloween using masks. I suppose you could describe the tradition as a weird advent calendar. There’s been an odd selection of masks in the past – from the expensive and luxury to the cheap and cheerful. To take a peek at what’s gone before then either search for […]
Evolution Art’s Destiny Exo art
There used to be art inspired by Destiny on Geek Native’s store. It’s not there any more because, despite being chibi in style, Activision thought it was too close to the actual game. Shame. It’s with some caution then that I point out Evolution Art’s excellent collection of framed prints on Society6. This War Isn’t […]

Fab Star Trek dresses from Anovos
I’ve subscribed to Anovos’s newsletter because their collection of fashionable geeky merch are too to miss. As Star Trek Discovery is the cool new thing I headed over to Anovos’ Star Trek section to see what they have. The gold bubble filter brings up this great collection of dresses. My slight concern here is that […]
800 pieces of Lego chestburster
This Lego xenomorph chestburster build from the Arvo Brothers is one of my favourites. As it happens some of the pieces are quite hard to find but if you’ve an impressive collection you may be able to build this alien in about 90 minutes. The YouTube channel MyBrikBox has a time lapse which shows the […]
