It’s five o’clock somewhere in the galaxy, so drink up. And when you do, drink from this beautiful Star Wars Glass Whiskey Decanter Set. It’s perfect for any home, office or armored space station. It can be personalized too. It makes a great gift for yourself or another Star Wars fan.
Fritz Lang’s Metropolis endures to this day. I’m kind of surprised that they haven’t remade it recently since they remake everything else. I thought you guys would appreciate this fan-made poster from Dan Schlitzkus. The art deco design looks great in those bright pop colors.
Artist Ron Cummings created these fun designs for the 2016 election. These are a much better choice than the two politicians vying to be President in the real world. If you vote Ackbar, you can be sure that he’ll tell you about any traps, however, we’ve always been told to let the Wookie win. So this is a hard call.
Frank Howarth made this gorgeous Death Star out of bamboo. This space station/super weapon looks surprisingly good in wood. Frank also shared some behind-the-scenes footage showing the build. Is this not the most beautiful thing that is not a moon that you have ever seen?
In a zombie outbreak, when Batman becomes a zombie, we are all dead.Or is that undead? This is the work of Ali Jalali, a CG sculpture and character artist. It shows the Dark Knight as a zombie in gory detail. He calls the piece The Undead Rises.It was created for a Comic-Con 2016 challenge where artists were asked to turn superheroes into zombies. Batman looks absolutely terrifying here. I would hate to run into him.
This fan made diorama of Jabba’s throne room is perfect. It has all of those little details that you want in a playset. I guess Giorgio Gregori made this because it’s about a hundred times better than any playset you can buy. I love all of the background characters he added and the palace itself just looks awesome. They really should hire Giorgio to help make Star wars toys.
A few months back we shared some cool Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy Bath Towels. Well, here are some Guest towels that accompany them nicely. They have a more modern design and will look great in your home. Those details are embroidered. Imagine your guest’s delight as they spot these geeky towels.
This adorable art comes from Ukraine based artist Tasha Mille. They are children’s style Chibi versions of Star Wars characters. I like how she paired up a small character with a big one. These would make great posters or even greetings cards. They are just so cute. She says that there will only be three, but I hope she makes many more.
A lot of Star Trek Beyond takes place on an alien planet and this concept art by Victor Martinez gives us a closer look at some designs for the planet, as well as some ships and other things that never made it on screen. It is really interesting work. Martinez did some of these early on with production designer Scott Chambliss and others were done for later reshoots with Production Designer Andrew Murdock.
It looks so grand and fantastic. I always love seeing what filmakers were thinking and seeing how things evolved.

If you’re looking for a retro way to add some Star wars into your home, check out this Retro Set of Star Wars String Wall Art. You get all three pieces: The Millennium Falcon, TIE Fighter and the Death Star. This set looks really awesome on custom-made 1-1/2″ thick wood “canvases” which are painted Imperial matte black to contrast the light gray string.
