Geek Crafts

Greeting folks!

I has been abit lacking on posts due to being away for Christmas, but normal service is now being resumed.

Hope you have all enjoyed the holidays.

Today I have  to show you a Darth Vader made by Bellino Alain who has a shop on Behance

This Darth Vader bust is made entirely from scrap metal pieces fixed together, the process of how is was assembled detailed on the site.

Bellino also has other scrap items such as skulls and cockerels. The talent displayed is simply awe-inspiring.

I got to see the 501st Cloud City Garrison marching at the Starlight Parade here in Portland the other week, which was really cool! They were definitely a crowd favorite. I spotted a couple of Darth Vaders, a regular Leia, a slave Leia, a Luke Skywalker in flight suit, light sabers galore, and many, many stormtroopers. One of many Cloud City Starlight videos is right here (filmed by GERUNDITE).
