Okay, this is seriously cool. An artist named Sillof has recreated the Star Wars cast in a Steampunk style. Click the pictures to embiggen.
This line is my attempt to redesign the Star Wars universe in an antiquated Victorian style.
This line is a three part series. It features my favorite aesthetic…old. I love the clunky old-fashioned look of the industrial era. It is kind of steampunk, but not really, which is why I changed the name of the line. It is influenced by Jules Verne, HG Welles, Terry Gilliam, Guillermo Del Toro, etc. But I feel it has my own unique sensibilities as well.
There are detail shots of all of the characters over at Sillof’s Workshop, the website of the artist behind the conversions. Even more is available on his deviantART Gallery.
I’m always amazed by the creativity shown when folks re-imagine popular culture. Thanks for the post. These are some truly wicked models.
This just gave me a ferocious nerdgasm. I would love to see Star Wars as steampunk… all of those characters are crazy, and I’m squealing like a young girl as I click through the others on deviantart. Thanks a ton for posting this.
Brilliant!! Love it.
That’s fucking awesome! I want.
FAB-U-LOUS!!!! That version of Star Wars should be filmed anime style like RIGHT NOW!!
