Kondroid sent me this fantastic set of images via Imgur today and I couldn’t resist sharing them here on BSR. I am sending the artist, Clinton Felker (Clinton Felker Blog) a big “Thank you for being amazing!” and props for combining two of  my loves (Star Wars and Japanese History) into some seriously badass artwork! The texture and detail that has gone into these renderings is mind-blowing, and I’m a big fan of the colors and shadows he’s chosen for each piece. (Is anybody else reminded of a very badass, intergalactic Shredder when they see the Boba Fett one, or is it just me?)

Stormtrooper

Boba Fett

Darth Vader
