This amazing image is a recreation of Leonardo DaVinci's "Last Supper" that features Star Wars characters. What's even more amazing is that the image is actually 69,550 frames from all six Star Wars movies. I'm not sure how much "artistry" is involved in the actual creation of pieces like this. I think there is software that matches the frames up to portions of the underlying image - nevertheless, it's still neat.
Implications - I'm extremely impressed with the look of all the Jedis and Siths featured in this illustration. Look how Luke Skywalker perfectly emulates Jesus' calm and somber expression in this piece.
