Luke Botwalker

Today's offering is part of a "Make Something 365" project from Remnants by RJ entitled "A-Robot-A-Day."

In addition to three other photos of Star Wars-inspired crafting, this 365 project has a ton of cool robots, many of them remixes in their own right!

SWR fun fact: this is also the first Star Wars Remix to feature Luke Skywalker!

Don't you wish every bag of pistachios contained a hand-crafted piece of art depicting our favorite R2 unit??!?

Floppy Art

Tim Schmidt has turned old technology into new art and - better still - written step-by-step instructions so you can, too! Check out these amazing remixes, made solely from old floppy disks.

Even if you have no floppies to remix, please head over to instructables.com for Tim's guides on making Darth Vader's TIE Fighter and the Millenium Falcon and X-Wing Fighter and give them a vote. These two are in the running for the Make It Real contest, and we think they ought to win!

R2D2 Rain Barrel

Looking for that perfect gift for the person who has everything? How about the remix below, which features a droid as skilled at hydro-reclamation protocols as he is at looking cute?

Curtis Glover crafted an R2D2-themed rain barrel as part of an annual contest held each year in Knoxville, TN by the Water Quality Forum. Know what's even cooler? It's being auctioned, so you can take this little guy home with you!

And be sure to cast a vote for this awesome remix over at the contest being held by the Water Quality Forum (voting ends May 22nd)!

Fry Trooper

A tasty remix today comes to us courtesy of Jasper Champ. We can't help but picture a certain dark-crested Sith Lord working the drive-through and asking, "You want fries with that rebellion?"

Star Wars Typography (EU)

They say the pen is mightier than the sword. Check out the amazing typography below from Nacho Gentini and see if you agree with us that typography is mightier than the light saber (anyone want to take a guess at the font he used...?).

Reconstructed Darth Vader

To call this remix (which begins with a pair of sunglasses spoons) a work of art is an understatement. Kudos to Alain Bellino on this amazing sculpture (and for sharing a video and still images of how he created this)!
