Atomic Ruby sure shows us thatrobots are sexy too.

Optimus Fine, so cute and incredibly scary used multiple teeth to get her point across.

They finally battled it out - who was the winner?  Only those who attended know.  It certainly impressed as by the end of the session we were the recipients of a new sponsor,  Flight Coffee.  Thanks fellahs.  Be prepared for some very awesome prizes!   

With four of the troupe members kicking and giggling up a storm, many a sketchy-artist was treated with many pretty lasses to draw.

Another member, Emma Wollum soulfully sung french songs and played the accordian.

Courtney L'amour and Fanciforia Foxglove gave a thrilling lively dance to A Devil Went Down to Georgia.  Sabina Vixen sang to us about Her Boots that are Made for Walking.  The models provided much gorgeousness for Wellington artists, and everyone had a go at making art with yarn.

Sabina Vixen, glorious in red.

Fanciforia Foxglove looks good in fringe and freckles.

We had such a wonderful afternoon of good music, great company and awesome models.  Thank you.

20th Century Boy, Willow Noir and DeeDee Witt rocked the stage in fantastic energy fueled electric guitar and raunchy rock-god moves

Willow Noir was the Sattelite of Love as she roller skated around DeeDee Witt in a sweet and touching song.

As in most rock god fame, the tale came to an end when too much drugs and booze got in the way, leading to the ultimate descruction.

Thus ending their tale and our afternoon of wonderful entertainment and drawing.  Thank you DeeDee and Willow for your wonderfully artistic stylings, fantastic hair and superb entertainment.

Eli J started with singing to us the Cab Calloway classic Minnie the Moocher.

Looking cooler than cool, our boylesque entertainers followed up with a lively and awesome dance 'Shake a Tail Feather'.  Many feathers were shook and the audience couldnt stop smiling (much like the emcee Grace La Belle)

For the grand finale, singing and stipping occured, as Hansel sang sweetly with his ukulele, Stand By Your Man, Eli availed Hansel of his pants.

A fun afternoon was had by all, having had such a range of entertainment by these two talented fella's.  Thanks guys.

Bon Bon Rocher kicked off our session with her Living Doll routine, first starting off all ruffles and lace, and then revealing an ultra sassy side and costume.

We had wonderful pictures for the competition - draw on a lolly wrapper.  It was quite a challenge to draw on the miniscule waxy Minties wrapper.

Honey Suckle then treated us to her ultra cute, ultra sweet, Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini

There was some super double posing from our lovelies.

It wasn't determined who was the winner of the fight, but the artists won by getting some amazing poses and prizes (from Calico Jacks, Dittybox, Caburlesque, Baby Tattoo Books and other amazing places)

Everyone went home with sweet tastes in their mouth, and sweet women in their minds.  Thank you to our wonderful and lovely and sweet and delicious models and helpers.

Bon Bon Rocher - 'sweeter than chocolate' is taking a break from her busy schedule to come pose and perform in her sensuous and funny style. Bon Bon won Miss Congeniality at Miss Burlesque NZ 2012, so we know for a fact she is as sweet as her tagline indicates. Bon Bon has performed at Carousel Cabaret, Red Delicious Revue, Caburlesque and Frolic Lounge and now will grace the Dr. Sketchy Stage.

And to make things even more sweet, Honey Suckle will delight us with her shy and expressive antics. Honey is no stranger to Burlesque stage, performing and graduating Miss la Belle's House of Burlesque, in Frolic Lounge in 2011. You too will fall in love with her coyness.

Also featuring crazy drawing competitions for amazing prizes from Calico Jacks, DittyBox, Caburlesque, The Vanity Case and Baby Tattoo books. Prize for the best dressed.

A spoonful of sugar makes the work week go down.  Check us out on Facebook.

For April in Wellington, we had a very special Dr. Sketchy... a three hour reverie in the world of steampunk. What is steampunk? It evokes a time and place that might have been, with Victorian garb and social mores wedded to high technology. A world where men are gentlemen, women are corset-wearing Difference Engine mathematicians, and everyone has a raygun and a brass-fitted laptop.
As befitted such a gathering of ladies, gentlemen, and rogues, Dr. Sketchy provided some of the finest Antipodean ecdysiast talent available. Our first performer , LadySin, brought the steam with oriental bellydancing.

Best Dressed featured the sartorially superior gentlemen in the audience. Soundmistress Winnie Chester determined the victor.

Then, MisRed treated us to a sexy, hilarious routine as a steampunk Mary Poppins. 

For our finale, Lady Sin returned to the stage.

There was great audience feedback on the playlist, assembled by Crystal Mischief and emcee Sadie von Scrumptious. Abney Park and Professor Elemental were particular favourites.

Even our mascot, James Mackay, had a splendid afternoon, attracting the attentions of an admirer!

Kindly note that Lady Sin is bringing New Zealand’s Steampunk convention, AetherCon, to Wellington on October 13th. The inaugural AetherCon in Auckland was a roaring success.

To start things off - Fanciforia was an elven bridal assistant to gilded voiced Siren Sweetsong.  Frustrated at the nuptials, Fancifora ripped her clothes off.

Next up was a Shortland Street medical emergecy, with Siren Sweetsong picking a victim from the audience and ultimately making it worth his while.

Grand finale was a Topp Twin Tribute, with Camp Leader baring all.

All in all a wonderful afternoon from two delightful, witty and charming lasses.  Thank you Fanci and Siren!  Also big thank you to the beautiful door babe Chantelle Martin and your soon new addition to your household, Mighty Mighty and their amazing staff, and Jonathan McGavin for his amazing fotos. A big thank you to our Sketchy participants who blew my mind with their amazing etchings especially the ones. See you on 14 April for Dr. Sketchy Wellington goes Steampunk  *skips*

Take one part industrial age, one part Victorian England, add some futuristic Sci-Fi elements (such as ray guns) and you have Steampunk. Well, as you can tell it's not quite as easy to describe - and that exactly is why you should come down to Dr. Sketchy Wellington on the 14th April, 4pm to 7pm, at Mighty Mighty (109 Cuba Street).  $14 (or $12 if you have a student/community services/Grey power).

Joining us for a delightful afternoon full of Steampunk frivolity is the mystical and mysterious LadySin belly dancer, joining her is a beautiful and bewitching Burlesque dancer MisRed. All eloquently announced by mistress of ceremonies, Mdme. Crystal Mischief.

Prizes to be won from wonderful sponsors - Dittybox Gallery, The Vanity Case, Calico Jacks, Baby Tattoo Books and many more.

You bring the pencils and paper we’ll supply the performers, prizes and pizazz!  Put a rustle in your bustle, and be sure not to miss out on such a spectacle.
