Would you build a computer inside an Imperial Walker? This AT-AT casemod rather proves someone would. This casemod began life as a Hasbro AT-AT and gained a Zotax Z86 Mini ITX mobo with an INtel Core i7-2600K CPU, a Sapphire 6870 GPU and 8GB of RAM. Not bad for an AT-AT. Not bad for a […]

Find all our articles related to Star Wars. This collection covers topics in Cool Tech, Art, and Geek Stuff.
Star Wars of the Dead
Looking for killer pop art and a fresh take on some classics? Check out The Art of Jeff Hulligan. The Cleveland based designer has a lovely style. He can also be slightly spooky at times – in a good way – as these undead Star Wars prints show. I especially like undead R2-D2. These are […]
Short film: SubWars
Blood and gore splatter aplenty when an old man isn’t offered a seat on a busy subway. The Force is strong with this fellow. He looks the part, I admit, and I don’t think anyone is surprised when he pulls out a red lightsaber. The question is; why didn’t anyone offer him a seat. Would […]
Star Wars animated like Robotech
This 2 minute animation, also available in 3D, shows what Star Wars might look like if it’s animated like a traditional Robotech anime. It also shows Tie Fighters doing some serious damage on the rebel fleet. Via Lauren Berkley at Geeks are Sexy.
What if Star Wars was set in an 80s High School
Geek Native has featured the art of Denis Medri before. He’s done the Justice League as cowboys, steampunk Spider-man and a Rockabilly Batman and Bane set. Now? The clever artist has turned to Star Wars and set the sci-fi epic in a High School heavy with 80s fashion. Highly recommended: check out his blog.
Weapon redesign – minimalist splatter style
This is a wonderful way to turn iconic weapons into art. The Etsy store Harshness sells these designs as prints. If they’re out then a backup retailer is the artist’s Society6 page. The two styles are almost a contradiction. The splatter effect suggests that the weapons could be messy and cluttered and yet that’s not […]
ARST ARSW – This is Star Wars sorted alphabetically
This really is some 40 minutes of Star Wars re-sorted so that the dialogue is in alphabetical order. Watch just a second or two and you’ll understand. This video demands all sorts of questions – How did they do this? Why did they do this? Also be aware there are lots of “a” sounds at […]
The Star Wars theme played by just one man and his band
I can’t play any musical instruments at all. Nothing. That’s why I’ve every reason to be jealous and impressed by this Swedish street musician. He’s playing a whole band worth of instruments at once. He’s playing Star Wars. One-man bands are pretty rare these days, I think it’s been an age since I’ve seen one […]
Talk Yoda to Me
I tell you what – geeks seem pretty good at taking Jason Derulo’s Talk Dirty and making it their own. In this video Vicki Shae gives as the parody “Talk Yoda to Me” in a track that was released in time for Star Wars Day (May the 4th) this year. Star Wars fans; what do […]
Bad Robot meets Chewbacca for BadWookiee
This foot tall, hand stitched, work of geeky art is the creation of Helen Greenstein. You can buy it too; $2,300. Do you recognise the shape? This is the Bad Robot from J.J. Abrams’s Bad Robot Productions. Given that Abrams is off to make the next three Star Wars films a Chewbacca Bad Robot mashup […]
