Lili VonSchtupp Custom Kubrick Toy by Chris Beyond ©2010

This is a view of a Medicom Kubrick figure that I customized into a figure of modern burlesque star (and producer of the Monday Night Tease in L.A.) Lili VonSchtupp along with the "stage playset" I created for her which is a recreation of the actual stage at The Monday Night Tease in Hollywood.

 

The stage is made out of wood, aluminum, fabric (for the tassels and trim), canvas (not seen in this angle), and paper (for the banner).

 

Lili is created here to be featured in her 'Fabulous Poodles' costume. Technically the way we are seeing it here, she would be in the middle of her act.

 

I believe this started off as a military figure. The chest piece and (interchangeable) hair were created with sculpy. The figure was painted with acrylics and treated to be playable and waterproof.

 

Eventually I want to add some boas and her box of mechanical poodles that she uses in the act. This is the first in a series I am working on which will include other modern stars of the burlesque stage as well as some of its legends.
