Title: Steampunk Star Wars pics
Post by: Mr. Black on May 18, 2012, 02:06:58 PM

Wow, stumbled upon some awesome steampunk Star Wars pics by artist Björn Hurri...

We've all seen Sillof's magnificent collection of our favourite heroes and villains, but mr. Hurri's taken a slightly different approach and looks equally impressive:

Don't know if steampunk's your cup of tea, but these are some killer art pieces. Feel free to add more SWSP :D

Update 05/20/12:

Found some more, this time by artist Tom Hodges. I really like his take on Han and Chewie (Chewie in a suit... suits him!) and his Luke Skywalker:

His art is a bit less extreme compared to Hurri and feels a bit more like a Western take on the GFFA. Still pretty cool imho.

Yeah, I agree. Posted some more by artist Tom Hodges. Already working on his Han and Chewie, as a matter of fact. Smuggling.... like a SIR!

Tom Hodges is an awesome artist and a really nice guy, i have a commisioned Darth Vader carbon freezing chamber piece from him and it is really fantastic. His prices are very reasonable too.
