Channeling Cthulhu, Aaron Jasinski has attached moving tentacles to these memorable Star Wars helmets in a painting series that’s delightfully bizarre. If you thought Darth Vader, Stormtroopers and Boba Fett weren’t menacing enough in the original George Lucas trilogy, you’ll certainly change your mind after laying eyes on these artful abominations.
What’s especially noteworthy about these Aaron Jasinski illustrations is their seamless transition from mechanical parts to organic appendages. The Darth Vader helmet, in particular, looks as though it’s some breed of yet undiscovered octopi. This smooth transition between living and inanimate object shows Jasinski’s talent as a designer, as well as his imaginative mind. It’s no wonder why his work is so highly regarded on the Internet and around the world.
